Objective:
Thymosin b10 (TMSB10), a member of the thymosin family, is mainly located in cells and participates in the assembly and occurrence of cytoskeleton. We aimed to investigate the regulatory mechanism of TMSB10 in ccRCC.
Methods:
In this study, Xiantao Academic Tools were taken to perform the pan-cancer expression and immune infiltration analysis of TMSB10. Furthermore, it is found that there is a binding site for JUN in the promoter region of TMSB10 through the JASPAR database predictive analysis. The CHIP experiment is used to confirm that JUN regulates the expression of TMSB10 through transcription, and to further detect the mRNA expression level of TMSB10 and JUN in ccRCC cell lines by qRT-PCR. Proliferation and apoptosis function analysis was also carried out to determine the functional changes of ccRCC cell lines after the expression of TMSB10 was regulated by JUN transcription.
Results:
The results show that TMSB10 is significantly up-regulated in a variety of cancers. Moreover, JUN regulates the high expression of TMSB10 through transcription and further promotes the proliferation of ccRCC cells and inhibits their apoptosis.
Conclusions:
In conclusion, this study shows that JUN transcription regulates the high expression of TMSB10 and promotes the progress of ccRCC.

The Retinoblastoma Gene
The first-ever tumor suppressor gene called Rb was identified in retinoblastoma - a rare eye tumor in children. In inherited forms of the disease, a child inherits one defective copy of the Rb gene, which predisposes them to retinoblastoma. However,...

Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...
