Our findings illustrate (1) the variable effect of PHD3 on HIF2α expression, (2) an inverse relationship between PHD3 expression and tumor growth in ccRCC animal models, and (3) the role of PHD3 in maintaining the redox state of UMRC3 cells and their proliferative rate under oxidative stress. This evidence concerns the gene EGLN3 and nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma.
