BACKGROUND: Interferon-α (IFN-α) is one of the central agents in immunotherapy for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and binds to the IFN-α receptor (IFNAR). We investigated the role of IFNAR in RCC. METHODS: We quantified IFNAR mRNA expression in paired tumor and non-tumor samples from the surgical specim...
