We observed that among the major carcinogenic factors of ccRCC, VHL and BAP1 changed more frequently in ccRCC patients with SLC34A1 than in those without (VHL: 58.82% vs. 43.66%, P = 6.343e−3; BAP1: 26.19% vs. 14.31%, P = 6.298e−3) (Fig. 9D). Here, VHL is linked to nonpapillary renal cell carcinoma.
