Abstract Background: Lone noncoding RNA (lncRNA) is generally identified as competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) that plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), the most common subtype of renal cell carcinoma with poor prognosis and unclear pathogenesis. This study established a novel ceRNA network and thus identified a three-lncRNA prognostic model in KIRC patients. Methods: Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened out from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The lncATLAS was applied to determine the differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) located in the cytoplasm. The miRcode, miRDB, miRTarBase, and TargetScan databases were utilized to predict the interactions of DElncRNAs, DEmiRNAs, and DEmRNAs. Cytoscape was used to construct the ceRNA network. Then, a lncRNA prognostic model (LPM) was constructed based on ceRNA-related lncRNA that was significantly related to overall survival (OS), and its predictive ability was evaluated. Moreover, an LPM-based nomogram model was constructed. The significantly different expression of genes in the LPM was validated in an independent clinical cohort (N=21) by quantitative RT-PCR. Results: A novel ceRNA regulatory network, including 73 lncRNAs, 8 miRNAs, and 21 mRNAs was constructed. Functional enrichment analysis indicated that integral components of membrane and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway represented the most significant GO terms and pathway, respectively. The LPM established based on three lncRNAs (MIAT, LINC00460, and LINC00443) of great prognostic value from the ceRNA network was proven to be independent of conventional clinical parameters to differentiate patients with low or high risk of poor survival, with the AUC of 1-, 5- and 10-year OS were 0.723, 0.714 and 0.826 respectively. Furthermore, the nomogram showed a better predictive value in KIRC patients than individual prognostic parameters. The expression of MIAT and LINC00460 was significantly upregulated in the KIRC samples, while the expression of LINC00443 was significantly downregulated compared with the adjacent normal samples in the clinical cohort, TCGA, and GTEx. Conclusion: This LPM based on three-lncRNA could serve as an independent prognostic factor with a tremendous predictive ability for KIRC patients, and the identified novel ceRNA network may provide insight into the prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets of KIRC.

Abstract Here, we report surgical treatment of a patient presenting with pancreatic metastasis (MTS) of renal clear cell carcinoma (RCC) 11 years after nephrectomy. RCC is one of few cancers that metastasise in pancreas. Jaundice, abdominal pain or gastrointestinal bleeding can develop; however, asymptomatic MTS can be discovered by follow-up after removal of the primary tumour. The patient, 67-year-old female was radiologically diagnosed with a clinically silent mass in the pancreatic body and underwent distal pancreatic resection. The postoperative period was smooth. Four months after the surgery, there were no signs of disease progression.
