CircRNAs, a special type of noncoding RNAs characterized by their stable structure and unique abilities to form backsplicing loops, have recently attracted the interest of scientists. These RNAs are abundant throughout the body and play important roles such as microRNA sponges, templates for transcription, and regulation of protein translation and RNA-binding proteins. Renal cancer development is highly correlated with abnormal circRNA expression in vivo. CircRNAs are currently considered promising targets for novel therapeutic approaches as well as possible biomarkers for prognosis and diagnosis of various malignancies. Despite our growing understanding of circRNA, numerous questions remain unanswered. Here, we address the characteristics of circRNAs and their function, focusing in particular on their impact on drug resistance, metabolic processes, metastasis, cell growth, and programmed cell death in renal cancer. In addition, the application of circRNAs as prognostic and diagnostic biomarkers will be discussed.

The ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS), driven by ubiquitin as a degradation signal, eliminates, in a highly specific manner, 'abnormal' proteins and proteins that completed their function. This process involves a hierarchical cascade of E1, E2, and E3 enzymes. The E3 ubiquitin ligases, act as specific receptors that bind their cognate substrates.

Background: Previous studies have demonstrated perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) impact renal function, with albumin playing dominant role in their transport and accumulation. However, the mediating role of albumin in PFAS-induced renal impairment and the identification of sensitive populations remain uninvestigated.
Methods: This study included 9328 individuals from NHANES 1999-2018 with data on serum PFAS, creatinine, albumin, and covariates.

Renorrhaphy is often performed after tumor resection during robotic-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RAPN). This study aimed to investigate the association between renorrhaphy performance and inflammatory markers. A retrospective cohort study was conducted including patients with renal cell carcinoma who underwent RAPN at eight institutions in Japan between April 2016 and November 2023.

We studied mortality and hospital contact in people from Thyborøn-Harboøre, an environmentally contaminated fishing community on the Danish West Coast. The population and a comparison group from other fishing communities on the Danish West Coast were identified from historical data in the Central Population Register. All persons were followed up for death and hospital contacts to March 2023.
