## Abstract The proteome of RCC was analyzed by 2D PAGE to search for tumorβassociated proteins. Agmatinase, which hydrolyzes agmatine to putrescine and urea, was identified by mass spectrometry and database searches and shown to be downregulated in tumor cells. Additionally, RTβPCR and Northern bl
## Abstract Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) as sorafenib are known to reduce the number of immunosuppressive regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the peripheral blood and thereby shifting the immune balance to a more stimulating setting. The effect of sorafenib on intratumoural Tregs is unclear but impo
