Comprehensive Analyses Revealed Eight Immune Related Signatures Correlated With Aberrant Methylations as Prognosis and Diagnosis Biomarkers for Kidney Renal Papillary Cell Carcinoma.

Background: Kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP) is a common type of renal cell carcinoma. DNA methylation plays an important role in the development of several cancers. The aim of our study was to identify differentially expressed genes associated with abnormal DNA methylation as biomarkers for predicting the outcome of KIRP.

CCDC26 rs4295627 polymorphisms associated with an increased risk of glioma: A meta-analysis.

Background: Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumor in adults. Many studies have revealed associations between the rs4295627 polymorphism in the coiled-coil domain containing 26 (CCDC26) gene and the risk of glioma. However, the conclusions are still unclear because some studies have reported inconsistent results.
