摘要: The von Hippel-Lindau tumor-suppressor gene (VHL) is lost in most clear cell renal carcinomas (ccRCC). Here, using human ccRCC specimens, VHL-deficient cells, and xenograft models, we show that miR-204 a VHL-regulated tumor suppressor acting by inhibiting macroautophagy, with MAP1LC3B (LC3B) as direct functional target. Of note, higher grade of was correlated concomitant decrease increase LC3B levels, indicating LC3B-mediated macroautophagy necessary for RCC progression. VHL, addition to inducing endogenous miR-204, triggered the expression LC3C, an HIF-regulated paralog, suppressed growth. These data reveal function VHL tumor-suppressing regulator autophagic programs.
