A novel NSUN5/ENO3 pathway promotes the Warburg effect and cell growth in clear cell renal cell carcinoma by 5-methylcytosine-stabilized ENO3 mRNA.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) cells often reprogram their metabolisms. Enolase 3 (ENO3) is closely related to the Warburg effect observed in cells during tumor progression. However, the expression and function of ENO3 in ccRCC cells remain unclear. Therefore, this study investigated the expression and functional significance of ENO3 in the Warburg effect observed in ccRCC cells.

Methods

In this study, B-mode and microflow imaging ultrasound examinations were performed to evaluate patients with ccRCC. The extracellular acidification rate test and glucose uptake and lactate production assays were used to examine the Warburg effect in ccRCC cells. Western blotting, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, and immunochemistry were used t
