CPT1A and nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma: In the current study, we first investigated the mRNA expression profiles of multiple FA metabolic enzymes, i.e., ACLY, ACC, FASN, SCD, CPT1A, HADHA, HADHB, and ACAT1, in 42 ccRCC and 33 normal kidney tissues using the Oncomine database, validated their mRNA expression profiles using GEPIA resource, then evaluated and validated the prognostic significance of these metabolic enzymes in 530 ccRCC patients using Kaplan-Meier plotter and GEPIA analyses respectively.
