Purpose: To provide information about the role of microRNAs in the pathogenesis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and their diagnostic and prognostic utility as cancer biomarkers.
Methods: A literature search was performed in the PubMed and Web of Science databases using the keywords "renal cancer/renal cell carcinoma/kidney cancer" and "miR*/miRNA*/microRNA*". Articles dealing with the role of miRNAs in the pathogenesis of RCC, diagnostic miRNAs and prognostic miRNAs were separated.
Aim Of The Study: In rats, the environment with low content of oxygen induces hypoxic pulmonary hypertension. Remodeling of pulmonary resistance arteries is particularly triggered by the mast cell degranulation products, e.g.
