Abstract
Carriers of GSTM1-null and GSTP1-variant genotypes are in increased risk of RCC development. On the contrary, GSTM1-null genotype is associated with favorable postoperative prognosis in ccRCC. The possible molecular mechanism underlying the role of GSTM1 protein in RCC progression might be the presence of GSTM1:ASK1 protein-protein interaction. Hence, determination of GSTM1-genotype might serve as a valuable indicator in both RCC risk assessment and postoperative prognosis.
