High PLIN2 mRNA expression is associated with good DFS in patients with ccRCC. Patient samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas were separated into two groups: Those with low PLIN2 expression and those with high PLIN2 expression. (A) DFS of patients with ccRCC was associated with PLIN2 expression. DFS subanalysis was conducted in subgroups of patients with ccRCC: (B) Female, (C) age <60 years, (D) age ≥60 years, (E) T3 + T4 stage, (F) N0 stage, (G) M0 stage, (H) G3 + G4 grade and (I) stage III + IV. ccRCC, clear cell renal cell carcinoma; DFS, disease-free survival; PLIN, perilipin.
