Summary

Story summary

Researchers at Tsinghua University have created 3D-printed kidney tumors using patient cells, advancing kidney cancer research.
This technique produces realistic organoids that replicate tumor environments for improved therapy testing.
A study identifies TOPK as significant in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma, correlating its expression with poor survival and immune suppression.
Targeting TOPK may enhance treatment outcomes by addressing tumor progression and immune evasion.
