Genetic basis for kidney cancer: opportunity for disease-specific approaches to therapy.

Expert opinion on biological therapy - 1 Jun 2008

Pfaffenroth Elizabeth Cartwright, Linehan W Marston

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Kidney cancer is not a homogenous entity; it is comprised of many different tumor types, with different biologies and molecular mechanisms leading to disease and therefore different treatment approaches. OBJECTIVE: To describe the genetic basis and biochemical pathways underlying inherited forms of renal cancer, specifically in four described syndromes (von Hippel-Lindau [VHL], hereditary papillary...
