Mechanisms underlying the association between sarcopenia and poor oncologic outcomes in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
Abstract
662
Background: Sarcopenia (low skeletal muscle mass) is associated with poor outcomes in patients with ccRCC. The mechanisms underlying this association are unclear. To understand this association, we examined gene expression differences by sarcopenic status in patients with ccRCC. Methods: The cohort consisted of 62 ccRCC patients treated by nephrectomy and previously transcriptomically-profiled in the Cancer Genome Atlas. …
