Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common subtype of renal cell carcinoma and is characterized by a complex molecular landscape driven by genetic and epigenetic alternations. Among the crucial signaling pathways implicated in ccRCC, the Wnt/β-catenin pathway plays a significant role in tumor progression and prognosis. This review delves into the molecular basis of ccRCC, highlighting the genetic and epigenetic modifications that contribute to its pathogenesis. We explore the significance of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, focusing on its role in disease development, particularly the nuclear transport of β-catenin and its activation and downstream effects. Furthermore, we examine the role of antagonist genes in regulating this pathway within the context of ccRCC, providing insights into potential therapeutic targets. Dysregulation of this pathway, which is characterized by abnormal activation and nuclear translocation of β-catenin, plays a significant role in promoting tumor growth and metastasis. We explore the intricate molecular aspects of ccRCC, with a particular emphasis on this topic, underscoring the role of the pathway and emphasizing the importance and relevance of antagonist genes. Understanding the intricate interplay between these molecular mechanisms is crucial for developing innovative strategies to improve ccRCC treatment and patient outcomes.
