## Abstract ## Background and Objectives Osteopontin (OPN) is a phosphorylated glycoprotein with diverse functions including tumorigenesis and tumor cell metastasis. Recently, it has been detected in a growing number of human tumors, and assessed as a potential prognostic marker. The aim of this s
## BACKGROUND. Recent reports have shown altered expression of CD44 in renal cell carcinomas. However, to the authors' knowledge there are no data correlating CD44 expression in renal cell carcinomas with subsequent tumor progression or recurrence, nor is there information about the presence of pa
## Abstract HLA class I loss or downregulation is a widespread mechanism used by tumor cells to avoid tumor recognition by cytotoxic T lymphocytes favoring tumor immune escape. Multiple molecular mechanisms are responsible for these altered HLA class I tumor phenotypes. It has been described in dif
## Abstract It has been documented that renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) occur frequently in patients treated with longβterm dialysis, especially in cases of endβstage renal disease (ESRD)/acquired cystic disease of the kidney (ACDK). To address the molecular pathogenesis of ESRD/ACDKβassociated RCCs,
