Results: Compared to normal renal samples, ccRCC (3.08-fold change, P = 1.50E-7; 1.10-fold change, P = 3.00E-3), papillary RCC (2.24-fold change, P = 1.86E-4), and hereditary ccRCC (1.98-fold change, P = 1.69E-9) have significantly higher levels of MAP3K8 expression. This evidence concerns the gene MAP3K8 and nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma.
