Potential upstream lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network of the ferroptosis-related gene SLC7A11 in renal cell carcinoma.

Our research elucidated the crucial functions and the upstream long noncoding RNA (lncRNA)-microRNA (miRNA) regulatory network of SLC7A11 in RCC. Importantly, SLC7A11 can be used as a potential prognostic biomarker for 3 types of RCC and to determine the infiltration of immune cells in malignant tissues.
