High C1QTNF1 expression mediated by potential ncRNAs is associated with poor prognosis and tumor immunity in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Background: Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) originates from proximal tubular cells and is the most common subtype of renal cell carcinoma. KIRC is characterized by changes in lipid metabolism, and obesity is a risk factor for it. C1q And TNF Related 1 (C1QTNF1), a novel adipokine and member of the C1q and TNF-related protein (CTRP) family, has been shown to affect the progression of various cancers. However, the role of C1QTNF1 in KIRC has not been studied. Methods: The Wilcoxon rank sum test was used to analyze the expression of C1QTNF1 in KIRC tissues and normal tissues. The relationship between clinicopathological features and C1QTNF1 levels was also examined by logistic regression and the Wilcoxon rank sum test. In addition, the effect of C1QTNF1 on the prognosis
