APOL1 is highly expressed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma. (A–C) Heat map of hierarchical clustering (A), multidimensional scaling (B) and APOL1 mRNA expression (C) in RNA-seq of 9 patient ccRCC tumors compared to their adjacent normal tissues. (D) Kaplan-Meier survival analysis based on the APOL1 expression at stage 4 and grade 4 in the TCGA-KIRC dataset. (E, F) qRT-PCR analysis of APOL1 mRNA (E) and western blot analysis of APOL1 protein (F) in A-498, 786-O (primary cancer) and Caki-1 (metastatic) cells compared to HK-2 (normal) cells. Actin served as an internal control.
