Consistent with the previous studies (Long et al., 2016; Ohta et al., 2008; Shibata et al., 1998), we observed that a lower GNG7 expression was significantly associated with an overall poor survival and high grade/stage in ccRCC patients (Figure 2b, 3d, and 3e). This evidence concerns the gene GNG7 and nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma.
