Furthermore, TCPA prognostic analysis observed that several of the key molecules of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway [PTEN, p-AKT (S473) and p-mTOR (S2448)] were also positively correlated with OS in patients with ccRCC (P < 0.05). The gene discussed is PIK3CG; the disease is nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma.
