abstract：:Nogo proteins play an important role in the apoptosis of cells, especially in tumor cells. The present study was conducted to evaluate whether the TATC (rs71682980) and CAA (rs34917480) insertion/deletion polymorphisms of RTN4 3'-UTR are associated with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). These two polymorphisms ...
