PG - 63-72 LID - 10.1007/5584_2021_700 [doi] AB - Symptoms of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) have typically late onset and correlate with its advanced stage. No biomarkers of RCC are currently available. The present study analyzed the immuno-biochemical profile of RCC by measuring the levels of cytokines engaged in RCC pathophysiology. Cytokines were examined by capture sandwich immunoassays in tumor tissue and urine. Specimens of cancer and nearby healthy kidney tissues were obtained during nephrectomy from 60 RCC patients. The urine was obtained from both patients and healthy subjects. The findings in RCC tumor tissue compared to healthy renal tissues were following: (i) increases in interleukin-15 (IL-15), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), interferon gamma-induced protein-10 (IP-10), macrophage inflammatory protein-1beta (MIP-1beta), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and eotaxin, with VEGF, IP-10, and MIP-1beta significantly associated with the histologic tumor nuclear grading (NG); (ii) increases in platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), IL-15, MIP-1ss, eotaxin, and MCP-1 in urine, with significant associations noticed between cytokines and disease stages for eotaxin and MCP-1; and (iii) decreases in PDGF, IL-15, MCP-1, VEGF, MIP-1beta, and eotaxin in urine from six patients on the third day after nephrectomy. We conclude that cytokines may play a critical role in the local pathogenesis of RCC, which opens the way for potential targeting of these molecules in novel therapies and their use as biomarkers for early noninvasive detection of RCC.
