Results: Seventy-one differential LMGs were identified between ccRCC and control samples, and a novel risk score model established comprising 11 LMGs (ABCB4, DPEP1, IL4I1, ENO2, PLD4, CEL, HSD11B2, ACADSB, ELOVL2, LPA, and PIK3R6); this risk model could predict ccRCC survival. The gene discussed is ELOVL2; the disease is nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma.
