The rise in global obesity rates has been accompanied by an increased prevalence of renal cancers, prompting an exploration into the molecular pathways and biological processes linking these phenomena. Through an extensive review of current literature and clinical studies, we identify potential key factors contributing to the carcinogenic influence of harmful fats on renal tissues.

Due to the novelty of these tumors, there is no standard diagnostic profile. However, they have been found to express , and synaptophysin, and they can be identified with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

The efficient production of microalgae biomass requires the optimization of resources, including CO. Here, we estimated the productivity of IPPAS C-1 depending on CO concentrations and the ventilation coefficient of the gas-air mixture (GAM) in flat-panel photobioreactors (FP-PBRs) at laboratory (5 L) and pilot (18 L) scales.
