Renal cell carcinoma represents 2-3% of all adult malignancies, and metastasis to the head and neck is a presenting complaint in 8% of these patients. Cutaneous facial renal cell carcinoma with no known primary renal tumour is unusual. We report a case of renal cell carcinoma of the nose with no known primary.

Enhancer RNA (eRNA) has emerged as a key player in cancer biology, influencing various aspects of tumor development and progression. In this study, we investigated the role of eRNAs in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), the most common subtype of renal cell carcinoma. Leveraging high-throughput sequencing data and bioinformatics analysis, we identified differentially expressed eRNAs in KIRC and constructed eRNA-centric regulatory networks.

Background: Tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in tumor growth and metastasis. Exploring biomarkers that are significantly associated with TME can help guide individualized treatment of patients.
Methods: We analyzed the expression and survival of P4HB in pan-cancer through the TCGA database, and verified the protein level of P4HB by the HPA database.

Background: Adult people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF) have a higher risk of end-stage kidney disease than the general population. The nature and mechanism of kidney disease in CF are unknown. This study quantifies urinary kidney injury markers and examines the hypothesis that neutrophil activation and lung infection are associated with early kidney injury in CF.

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the fourth leading cause of end-stage renal disease, contributing substantially to patient morbidity, mortality, and healthcare system strain. Emerging research highlights a pivotal role of epigenetics in ADPKD's pathophysiology, where mechanisms like DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non-coding RNA regulation significantly impact disease onset and progression. These epigenetic factors influence gene expression and regulate key processes involved in cyst formation and expansion, fibrosis, and inflammatory infiltration, thus accelerating ADPKD progression.

Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase 1 (FBP1) is a key gluconeogenic enzyme that plays complex and context-dependent roles in cancer biology. This review comprehensively examines FBP1's dual functions as both a tumor suppressor and an oncogene across various cancer types. In many cancers, such as hepatocellular carcinoma, clear cell renal cell carcinoma, and lung cancer, downregulation of FBP1 contributes to tumor progression through metabolic reprogramming, promoting glycolysis, and altering the tumor microenvironment.
