These results are consistent with those obtained by Qin et al. [6], who studied polymorphic variations in HIF1A and VHL (including rs779805) in 518 cases of ccRCC and by Bensouilah et al. [38] who investigated the role of fourteen SNPs in the different genes including rs779805 and rs1642742 in VHL in 54 patients with ccRCC. Here, HIF1A is linked to nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma.
