Abstract
Context: The number of prognostic markers for clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) has been increasing regularly over the last 15 years, without being integrated and compared. Objective: Our goal was to perform a review of prognostic markers for ccRCC to lay the ground for their use in the clinics. Evidence Acquisition: PubMed database was searched to identify RNA and protein markers whose expression level was reported as associated with survival of ccRCC patients. Relevant studies were selected through cross-reading by two readers. Evidence Synthesis: We selected 249 studies reporting an association with prognostic of either single markers or multiple-marker models. Altogether, these studies were based on a total of 341 distinct markers and 13 multiple-marker models. Twenty percent of these markers were involved in four biological pathways altered in ccRCC: cell cycle, angiogenesis, hypoxia, and immune response. The main genes (VHL, PBRM1, BAP1, and SETD2) involved in ccRCC carcinogenesis are not the most relevant for assessing survival. Conclusion: Among single markers, the most validated markers were KI67, BIRC5, TP53, CXCR4, and CA9. Of the multiple-marker models, the most famous model, ClearCode34, has been highly validated on several independent datasets, but its clinical utility has not yet been investigated. Patient Summary: Over the years, the prognosis studies have evolved from single markers to multiple-marker models. Our review highlights the highly validated prognostic markers and multiple-marker models and discusses their clinical utility for better therapeutic care.

Abstract
Significant advances in understanding of the biology of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) have been achieved recently, which led to novel targeted therapies, revolutionising the management of patients with advanced disease. To date, there are no molecular markers which can reliably predict RCC outcome. We investigated whether a novel kidney cancer marker, carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX), is associated with progression and survival. A retrospective study was done on patients diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma over a period of 5 years. Immunohistochemical analysis using a CAIX monoclonal antibody was performed on paraffin-embedded blocks from patients treated with nephrectomy for clear cell RCC. Patients were segregated into two categories based on CA IX expression as CA IX ≤ 85% and CA IX > 85%. A comparison was made based on the survival (from date of diagnosis) with CA IX expression. Correlation of CA IX expression and TNM staging, nuclear grading, tumour volume and age was statistically studied using Student's t test. The association between survival and CA IX was done using Mann-Whitney test. The association of CA IX with rest of the prognostic variables were analysed using Fisher's exact test. In our study, CA IX expression > 85% had longer survival compared with those with lower expression ≤ 85%. A significant statistical association was seen with CAIX and lymphovascular emboli, major vessel, perinephric fat, renal sinus fat involvement and distant metastasis. CAIX reflects significant changes in tumour biology that predicts clinical outcome and identify high-risk patients for adjuvant immunotherapy and CAIX targeted therapies.

Abstract
We sought to evaluate the expression of HSP27 and HSP90 chaperones in renal cell carcinomas as a target for cancer therapeutics.A total of 127 clear cell renal cell carcinomas stratified according to the Mayo Clinic SSIGN (size, staging, grading, and necrosis) risk groups (good, 1; poor, 5) and 20 cases with metastases, were available. Immunostaining for both HSP27 and HSP90 was performed on tissue microarrays. Results were detailed per scorable arrays per SSIGN risk groups.Immunolabelling for HSP90 and HSP27 was seen in 109 of 127 (86%) and 114 of 127 (89%) cases, respectively. HSP90 scored 4.9 in 32 cases risked SSIGN 1, 3.5 in 41 cases SSIGN 2, 4.8 in 11 cases SSIGN 3, 4.2 in 22 cases SSIGN 4, and 5.0 in three cases SSIGN 5. HSP27 scored 4.6 in 33 risked SSIGN 1, 3.1 in 43 SSIGN 2, 2.6 in 11 SSIGN 3, 3.6 in 24 SSIGN 4, and 2.7 in three SSIGN 5. Metastases ranged from 2.9-5.0. A trend of increasing value for HSP90 was observed when comparing SSIGN 1-2 versus SSIGN 3-5 risk groups (4.2 versus 4.6 mean values; p = 0.06); no difference has been observed for HSP27 (3.8 to 3.9; p = 0.08).A score modulation of HSPs is observed in renal cell carcinoma and may affect the efficacy of targeted therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Clinical outcomes prognostic markers are awaited in clear-cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) to improve patient-tailored management and to assess six different markers' influence on clinical outcomes from ccRCC specimen and their incremental value combined with TNM staging. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a retrospective, multicenter study. One hundred and forty-three patients with pT1b-pT3N0M0 ccRCC were included. Pathology specimens from surgeries were centrally reviewed, mounted on a tissue micro-array and stained with six markers: CAIX, c-MYC, Ki67, p53, vimentin and PTEN. Images were captured through an Ultra Fast Scanner. Tumor expression was measured with Image Pro Plus. Cytoplasmic markers (PTEN, CAIX, vimentin, c-MYC) were expressed as surface percentage of expression. Nuclear markers (Ki67, p53) were expressed as number of cells/mm2. Clinical data and markers expression were compared with clinical outcomes. Each variable was included in the Cox proportional multivariate analyses if p < 0.10 on univariate analyses. Discrimination of the new marker was calculated with Harrell's concordance index. RESULTS At median follow-up of 63 months (IQR 35.0-91.8), on multivariate analysis, CAIX under-expression and vimentin over-expression were associated with worse survival (recurrence, specific and overall survival). A categorical marker CAIX-/Vimentin+ with cutoff points for CAIX and vimentin of 30 and 50 %, respectively, was designed. The new CAIX-/Vimentin+ marker presented a good concordance and comparable calibration to the reference model. Limitations are the retrospective design, the need for external validation and the large study period. CONCLUSION Using an automated technique of measurement, CAIX and vimentin are independent predictors of clinical outcomes in ccRCC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the expression of MIB-1, BCL-2, VEGFR3, and CD31 and their associations with long-term survival in patients with renal cell cancer (RCC). PATIENTS AND METHODS This study consisted of 224 RCC patients who underwent radical nephrectomy from 1985 to 1995. Follow-up continued for up to over 20 years. MIB-1 and BCL-2 expression were analyzed alone, and additionally, the expression of MIB-1, BCL-2, VEGFR3, and CD31 were combined in pairs using the following groups: low/low, low/high, high/low, and high/high. RESULTS Low BCL-2 expression (hazard ratio [HR], 2.16; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.42-3.31; P < .001 compared with high BCL-2 in univariate analysis) and high MIB-1 expression (HR, 2.05; 95% CI, 1.32-3.19; P = .001 in multivariate analysis) were found to associate for poorer survival in RCC. In multivariate analysis, the combination of high MIB-1/low BCL-2 was associated with poor survival compared with low MIB-1/high BCL-2 (HR, 3.20; 95% CI, 1.66-6.17; P = .001), and the combination of low VEGFR3/high CD31 was associated with poor survival (HR, 2.48; 95% CI, 1.29-4.78; P = .007) compared with high VEGFR3/high CD31. CONCLUSIONS Compared with high BCL-2 expression in combination with low or high MIB-1, VEGFR3, or CD31 expression, low BCL-2 expression in combination with low or high MIB-1, VEGFR3, or CD31 expression has poorer survival in the long-term follow-up of patients with RCC. Analysis of MIB-1, BCL-2, VEGFR3, and CD31 expression might be a useful additional marker to tailor the follow-up of RCC patients.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The natural history of clear cell renal cell cancer is highly unpredictable with various progressors and with populations where small renal masses may be accompanied by metastatic disease. Currently, there is a critical need to determine patient risk and optimize treatment regimes. For these patients, molecular markers may offer significant information in terms of prognostic and predictive values, as well as determination of valid therapeutic targets. Until now, only a few of the many identified clear cell renal cell cancer biomarkers have been clinically validated in large cohorts. And only several biomarkers are integrated in predictive or prognostic models. Therefore, a large cohesive effort is required to advance the field of clear cell renal cell cancer prognostic biomarkers through systematic discovery, verification, validation and clinical implementation.

Abstract
Appropriate use of multiple reliable molecular biomarkers in the right context will play a role in tailormade medicine of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients in the future. A total of 11,056 patients from 53 studies were included in this review. The article numbers of the each evidence levels, using the grading system defined by the Oxford Centre for Evidence-based Medicine, in 1b, 2a, 2b, and 3b were 5 (9%), 18 (34%), 29 (55%), and 1 (2%), respectively. The main goal of using biomarkers is to refine predictions of tumor progression, pharmacotherapy responsiveness, and cancer-specific and/or overall survival. Currently, carbonic anhydrase (CA9) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in peripheral blood and p53 in tumor tissues are measured to predict metastasis, while VEGF-related proteins in peripheral blood are used to assess pharmacotherapy responsiveness with sunitinib. Furthermore, interleukin 8, osteopontin, hepatocyte growth factor, and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases-1 in peripheral blood enable assessment of responsiveness to pazopanib treatment. Other reliable molecular biomarkers include von Hippel–Lindau gene alteration, hypoxia-inducible factor-1a, CA9, and survivin in tumor tissues and VEGF in peripheral blood for predicting cancer-specific survival. In the future, studies should undergo external validation for developing tailored management of clear cell RCC with molecular biomarkers, since individual institutional studies lack the generalization and consistency required to maintain accuracy among different patient series.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of the present study was to investigate expression of HSP70 and p-53 proteins as mechanisms of protection of the renal tubular epithelial cells from l-arginine that induces cellular stress. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study material consisted of 16 white Wistar female rats. The rats were divided into 2 equal groups. The rats in the experimental group received L-arginine 40 mg/kg body weight per capita every other day for 2 weeks and were decapitated after 3 weeks of the experiment. After decapitation, specimens from the kidney were collected, fixed in 10% formalin, and then embedded in paraffin blocks. Proteins HSP70 and p-53 on slides were detected using the standard three-step immunohistochemical method. RESULTS The quantitative evaluation of HSP70 and p-53 expression showed that the area occupied with positive HSP70 and p-53 reaction in the rat renal tubular cells of the experimental group (p-53: 2835.44 ±254.72 µm(2); HSP70: 24111.42 ±4290.88 µm(2)) was more statistically significant than the control group (p-53: 1882.05 ±466.43 µm(2); HSP70: 11388.63 ±1455.24 µm(2)). In the present study, the dose of L-arginine was similar to the one that was used in the gestosis treatment of pregnant women. CONCLUSIONS The renal epithelial cells responded to L-arginine therapy, increasing expression of HSP70 and p-53 proteins. The study showed that L-arginine as a donor of exogenous nitric oxide has a disruptive effect on the renal tubular cells of rat kidneys. Thus it is going to be a subject of the author's future investigations.

Abstract
KISS-1 is a metastasis-suppressor gene of human melanoma, and encodes metastin, which was identified as the ligand of a G-protein-coupled receptor (metastin receptor). The precursor protein is cleaved to 54 amino acids, which may be further truncated into carboxy-terminal fragments. Previous studies showed that lack of metastin receptor in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is associated with tumor progression, but the prediction of metastasis in patients with pT1 clear cell RCC after radical nephrectomy is difficult. The objective of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of metastin receptor immunohistochemistry in predicting metastasis after nephrectomy for pT1 clear cell RCC. After verification of the correlation between immunostaining and mRNA expression, we evaluated the clinical value of metastin receptor immunohistochemistry. Fifty-four patients were enrolled in this study; following radical nephrectomy, seven patients were found to have lung metastasis. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value with negative immunostaining of metastin receptor were 85.7, 97.6, 46.2, and 97.6 %, respectively. Metastasis-free survival rates were significantly higher in patients with positive staining (97.6 %) than in patients with negative staining (53.8 %) (P < 0.001). In univariate analysis for metastasis-free survival, negative immunostaining of metastin receptor was a significant risk factor for metastasis (P = 0.001). Furthermore, negative immunostaining of metastin receptor was an independent predictor for metastasis in multivariate analysis (hazard ratio, 3.735; 95 % CI 0.629-22.174; P = 0.002). In conclusion, our study suggests that negative expression of metastin receptor in clear cell RCC is significantly related to metastasis.

Abstract
Several studies have proposed that protease expression and activity may have a predictive value in the survival of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC). Most efforts on this issue have been focused on the analysis of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) and very little on the role of other proteases, such as peptidases. The catalytic activity of 9 peptidases (APN, APB, ASP, CAP, DPP-IV, NEP/CD10, PEP, PGI, and PSA) was quantified by fluorometric methods in a series of 79 CCRCC patients, and the results obtained were analyzed for survival (Kaplan-Meier curves, log-rank test, and Cox multivariate analysis). CCRCC patients with higher activity levels of membrane-bound APN and soluble APN, DPP-IV, and CAP had significantly shorter 5-yr survival rates than those with lower levels. By contrast, higher soluble APB activity significantly correlated with longer survival. Our data suggest the involvement of peptidases in the biological aggressiveness of CCRCC and support the usefulness of measuring these proteases to assess the prognosis of patients with CCRCC.

Abstract
First discovered in 1962, heat shock proteins (HSPs) are highly studied with about 35,500 publications on the subject to date. HSPs are highly conserved, function as molecular chaperones for a large panel of “client” proteins and have strong cytoprotective properties. Induced by many different stress signals, they promote cell survival in adverse conditions. Therefore, their roles have been investigated in several conditions and pathologies where HSPs accumulate, such as in cancer. Among the diverse mammalian HSPs, some members share several features that may qualify them as cancer biomarkers. This review focuses mainly on three inducible HSPs: HSP27, HPS70, and HSP90. Our survey of recent literature highlights some recurring weaknesses in studies of the HSPs, but also identifies findings that indicate that some HSPs have potential as cancer biomarkers for successful clinical applications.

Abstract
PURPOSE In terms of drug resistance, cancer cells usually benefit from high clusterin (CLU) expression on chemotherapy. In contrast, CLU expression has been found to be a favorable prognostic factor in lung cancer patients. The aims of this study are to determine the association between CLU expression and chemotherapeutic sensitivity and the potential role of CLU in migration in human non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines. METHODS The levels of clusterin in NSCLC cell lines were altered by short hairpin RNA interference (shRNAi) and overexpression on chemosensitivity assay. Migratory ability of these cell lines was also investigated. RESULTS H1355 cells with the highest level of CLU demonstrated the lowest sensitivities to Adriamycin (ADR), docetaxel (DOC), and gemcitabine (GEM) treatment. Inhibition of CLU expression in H1355 cells resulted in higher chemosensitivities. When CLU was stably overexpressed in A549 and H1299 cells, only the chemosensitivity to ADR was reduced. The migratory ability of CLU-overexpressing cells significantly decreased. Moreover, MMP2 transcription was inhibited in CLU-overexpressing H1299 cells. These results indicated lower metastatic potential for cancer cells with high CLU level. CONCLUSION Lung cancer cells with high level of CLU have reduced chemosensitivity. High level of CLU may result in migratory inhibition and thus favorable prognosis in lung cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE We analyzed characteristics in patients with recurrent renal cell carcinoma 5 years or later after nephrectomy and determined predictors of survival after recurrence. MATERIALS AND METHODS From July 1989 to October 2008 at total of 2,368 nephrectomies were done for clinically localized, unilateral renal cell carcinoma at our institution. Of 256 patients with disease recurrence 44 had recurrence 5 years or more after nephrectomy. We compared clinicopathological characteristics in patients with disease recurrence before vs after 5 years. Survival from time of recurrence was assessed based on Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center risk score, symptoms at recurrence, metastasectomy, tumor diameter, and recurrence stage and site. RESULTS Patients with late recurrence tended to have fewer symptoms at presentation, smaller tumors (median 8.5 vs 7 cm) and less aggressive disease (pT1 in 18% vs 39%). Median overall survival was 6.1 years from time of recurrence. Five-year actuarial survival was 85% in 28 patients at favorable risk and 14% in 10 at intermediate risk (log rank p <0.001). The 5-year estimated overall survival rate was 72% in 31 patients with incidentally detected recurrence and 39% in 11 with symptoms at recurrence (log rank p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Data suggest that patients with cancer recurrence 5 years after nephrectomy are at favorable risk and have long-term median survival. A favorable Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center risk score and absent symptoms related to metastasis are associated with longer survival in these patients.

Abstract
Small renal masses (SRMs) are renal tumors less than 4 cm in diameter. These account for the largest proportion of newly diagnosed renal cell cancers (RCC). Management of SRMs can be a dilemma if the patient is unfit to undergo partial nephrectomy. Molecular profiling enables better characterization of RCC and prediction of outcomes in terms of recurrence and progression. This article reviews the existing literature on molecular profiling of localized RCC, discusses limitations of molecular profiling, and presents the likely role that molecular profiling will play in guiding the treatment of SRMs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sinonasal adenocarcinomas are uncommon tumors which develop in the ethmoid sinus after exposure to wood dust. Although the etiology of these tumors is well defined, very little is known about their molecular basis and no diagnostic tool exists for their early detection in high-risk workers. METHODS To identify genes involved in this disease, we performed gene expression profiling using cancer-dedicated microarrays, on nine matched samples of sinonasal adenocarcinomas and non-tumor sinusal tissue. Microarray results were validated by quantitative RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry on two additional sets of tumors. RESULTS Among the genes with significant differential expression we selected LGALS4, ACS5, CLU, SRI and CCT5 for further exploration. The overexpression of LGALS4, ACS5, SRI, CCT5 and the downregulation of CLU were confirmed by quantitative RT-PCR. Immunohistochemistry was performed for LGALS4 (Galectin 4), ACS5 (Acyl-CoA synthetase) and CLU (Clusterin) proteins: LGALS4 was highly up-regulated, particularly in the most differentiated tumors, while CLU was lost in all tumors. The expression of ACS5, was more heterogeneous and no correlation was observed with the tumor type. CONCLUSION Within our microarray study in sinonasal adenocarcinoma we identified two proteins, LGALS4 and CLU, that were significantly differentially expressed in tumors compared to normal tissue. A further evaluation on a new set of tissues, including precancerous stages and low grade tumors, is necessary to evaluate the possibility of using them as diagnostic markers.
