• REDD1 inactivation induces ROS dysregulation and consequent HIF-1α induction that promotes tumorigenesis.

• Loss of REDD1 induces a hypoxia-dependent increase in proliferation and anchorage-independent growth in vitro.

• Breast carcinomas exhibit silencing of REDD1 expression compared with normal epithelia.

• REDD1 is highly expressed in VHL-deficient clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC).

• Mutations in REDD1 may contribute to ccRCC development.

possibly a tumor suppressor in sporadic ccRCC.

• Sustained overexpression of Redd1 leads to mTORC1 inhibition and to consequent Akt activation that is involved in cell survival.

• Akt phosphorylation, which consequent to mTORC1 inhibition and sustained REDD1 overexpression, plays a role in cell survival and resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs.

• The significant increase of REDD1 expression is detected in bladder urothelial carcinoma(BUC) tissue.

• REDD1 is an independent prognostic factor in BUC patients.

• Silencing REDD1 expression in T24 and EJ cells decreased cell proliferation, increased apoptosis, and decreased autophagy. The ectopic expression of REDD1 in RT4 and BIU87 cells had the opposite effect.

• Inhibited REDD1 expression sensitizes BUC tumor cells to paclitaxel in a subcutaneous transplant sarcoma model in vivo.

REDD1 is an oncogene.

Antagonizing REDD1 could be a potential therapeutic strategy to sensitize BUC cells to paclitaxel
