Abstract

MicroRNA (miR)-510-5p has been demonstrated to be involved in a number of types of malignancy; however, the function of miR‑510‑5p in renal cancer remains unclear. The present study aimed to determine the expression of miR‑510‑5p in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) specimens and analyzed the impact of miR‑510‑5p on renal cancer by 3-(4,5‑dimethylthiazol‑2‑yl)‑2,5‑diphenyltetrazolium bromide, wound scratch and apoptosis assays. The results showed that miR‑510‑5p was significantly downregulated in RCC specimens compared with normal renal specimens. Overexpression of miR‑510‑5p by synthetic mature mimics reduced cell proliferation and migration and induced an increase in cell apoptosis, indicating that miR‑510‑5p may act as a tumor suppressor in RCC. The present study firstly revealed that downregulated miR‑510‑5p functioned as a tumor suppressor by reducing cellular proliferation and migration, and inducing apoptosis in RCC. Further research is required to define target genes of miR‑510‑5p to determine the cellular mechanism of miR‑510‑5p in the carcinogenesis of RCC.
