Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Glutathione S-transferase mu 3 (GSTM3) has been proven to be downregulated in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). We aimed to characterise the role of GSTM3 and its genetic predisposition on the occurrence and postoperative prognosis of RCC. METHODS: The effect of GSTM3 on RCC aggressiveness was examined using transfection and silencing methods. Glutathione S-transferase mu 3 expression in renal tissues was...
