Tumor Suppressor Properties of Small C-Terminal Domain Phosphatases in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) accounts for 80-90% of kidney cancers worldwide. Small C-terminal domain phosphatases CTDSP1, CTDSP2, and CTDSPL (also known as SCP1, 2, 3) are involved in the regulation of several important pathways associated with carcinogenesis. In various cancer types, these phosphatases may demonstrate either antitumor or oncogenic activity. Tumor-suppressive activity of these phosphatases in kidney cancer has been shown previously, but in general case, the antitumor activity may be dependent on the choice of cell line. In the present work, transfection of the Caki-1 cell line (ccRCC morphologic phenotype) with expression constructs containing the coding regions of these genes resulted in inhibition of cell growth in vitro in the case of CTDSP1 (p
