Abstract excerpt
BHD, TP53, and HNF1beta on chromosome 17 were studied in 92 cases of renal cell carcinoma (46 chromophobe, 19 clear cell, 18 oncocytoma, and nine papillary). Six, thirteen, and zero cases had, respectively BHD, TP53, and HNF1beta mutations, (84% mutations involved chromophobe), suggesting a role for BHD and TP53 in chromophobe subtype.
