The ultimate goal of surgical treatment in cancer is to remove the tumor mass for restoring a healthy state. A 16-lipid panel that discriminated healthy controls from clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) patients in a prior study was evaluated in the present work in paired-serum samples collec...
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common kidney malignancy. Yet, no rapid, non-invasive biomarkers are available for diagnosis or screening. Urine represents an ideal analyte matrix due to its accessibility, low invasiveness, longitudinal sampling and the kidney’s central role i...

A discovery-based lipid profiling study of serum samples from a cohort that included patients with clear cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (ccRCC) stage I, II, III, and IV (n=112) and controls (n=52) was performed using ultraperformance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spec...
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a kidney malignancy characterized by aberrant lipid accumulation and is intrinsically sensitive to ferroptosis. However, the mechanisms by which ccRCC escapes ferroptotic vulnerability remain poorly understood. Here, we report that fumarate hydratase (FH...
Germline or somatic loss-of-function of fumarate hydratase (FH) predisposes patients to an aggressive form of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Since other than tumor resection, there is no effective therapy for FH-deficient RCC, a competent method for early diagnosis and for early detection of recurre...
