CD31 angiogenesis and combined expression of HIF-1α and HIF-2α are prognostic in primary clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (CC-RCC), but HIFα transcriptional products are not: implications for antiangiogenic trials and HIFα biomarker studies in primary CC-RCC.

Hypoxia-inducible factors, HIF-1α and HIF-2α, are expressed in the majority of clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (CC-RCC). In vitro, HIFα isoforms regulate a differential set of genes, and their effects in vivo within CC-RCC tumours may affect outcome. The role of angiogenesis and HIFα transcriptional...
