Lamin-B1 is a senescence-associated biomarker in clear-cell renal cell carcinoma.

Clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a von-Hippel-Lindau gene () associated tumor disease. In addition to activating the hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) dependent oxygen-sensing pathway, loss also has an impact on a HIF-independent senescence program which functions as a tumorigenesis barrier. Lamin-B1 is a nuclear intermediate filament protein that exhibits effects on chromatin structure and gene expression and acts as a senescence effector.
