Abstract excerpt
Evolution of clear cell renal cell carcinoma is guided by dysregulation of hypoxia-inducible transcription factor (HIF) pathways following loss of the von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor protein. Renal cell carcinoma (RCC)-associated polymorphisms influence HIF-DNA interactions at enhancers of important oncogenes thereby modulating the risk of developing renal cancer. A strong signal of genome-wide association...
