Deskripsi
Dufies et al. find high Plk1 expression levels in aggressive clear cell renal cell carcinoma and discover that Plk1 is transcriptionally upregulated in a manner dependent on HIF-2. They also find that high Plk1 expression is correlated to a poor prognosis and resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitor against VEGF receptor, suggesting a critical role for hypoxia/HIF-2-induced Plk1 in disease progression.
