Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In dialysis-related renal cell carcinoma, mTOR was more strongly activated compared with conventional renal cell carcinoma. In addition, constitutive activation was also found in renal tubular cell in dialysis kidney, which would affect dialysis-related cancer initiation. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors accelerated mTOR activation in dialysis-related renal cell carcinoma.
