Moreover, knockdown of ATP5O expression based on the overexpression of CLDN10 could reverse the increase in NDUFS2, ROS, Cleaved-Caspase 3, E-cadherin and SDHB levels, the decrease in N-cadherin and mitochondrial membrane potential levels and the inhibition of ccRCC phenotypes caused by CLDN10 overexpression. This evidence concerns the gene SDHB and nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma.
