Abstract excerpt
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common neoplasm of the adult kidney, and clear cell RCC (ccRCC) represents its most common histological subtype. Although several studies have reported high expression of miR-122 in ccRCC, its physiological role remains unclear. To clarify the role of miR-122 in ccRCC, we compared miR-122 expression levels in non-cancerous tissue and ccRCC. Significant upregulation of...
