Uncovering a link between COVID-19 and renal cell carcinoma

The cellular action of SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the COVID-19 global pandemic, is dependent on a specific combination of receptors and cofactors. These proteins are now known to be expressed in normal kidney tubule tissue and renal cell carcinoma cells, representing possible targets for...
