Finally, the mRNA expression of prognostic genes in clinical ccRCC tissues showed that the ABCG1, HAVCR2, CD14, and TGFA mRNA in tumor samples were increased compared with the adjacent control tissue samples, while KDF1 and KITLG were decreased, which was consistent with the verification results in the GSE53757. Here, KITLG is linked to nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma.
