For the first time, a gene panel has been created for predicting metastasis of renal cancer.
The association of gene expression NDUFA4L2, VWF, EGLN3, SAA1 and C1QA has been shown with metastasis of clear cell renal cell cancer. The CA9, NDUFA4L2, BHLHE4, and EGLN3 genes were identified as the strongest candidates for prognosis markers. Use of the gene panel allows you to obtain a prediction sensitivity of 88% with a specificity of 73%.
The results contribute to an understanding of the metastasis mechanisms.
