Popis MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been proven to be important oncogenes and tumor suppressors in wide range of cancers, including renal cell carcinoma (RCC). In our study, we evaluated miRNA-429 as potential diagnostic/prognostic biomarker in 172 clear cell RCC patients and as a potential regulator of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in vitro. We demonstrated that miR-429 is down-regulated in tumor tissue samples (P < 0.0001) and is significantly associated with cancer metastasis (P < 0.0001), shorter disease-free (P = 0.0105), and overall survival (P = 0.0020). In addition, ectopic expression of miR-429 in 786-0 RCC cells followed by TGF-beta treatment led to increase in the levels of E-cadherin expression (P < 0.0001) and suppression of cellular migration (P < 0.0001) in comparison to TGF-beta-treated controls. Taken together, our findings suggest that miR-429 may serve as promising diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in RCC patients. We further suggest that miR-429 has a capacity to inhibit loss of E-cadherin in RCC cells undergoing EMT and consequently attenuate their motility.
