The pipeline results are included in a publication by Renate Pichler et al. (DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1095195). The analysis concerns solely publicly available data cited below. To reference and use analysis results, please cite our GitHub repository; the data sources listed below and our publication. In any questions, please contact Renate Pichler or Piotr Tymoszuk.

Data sources

This is a complete R analysis pipeline of 8 publicly available renal whole-transcriptome datasets:

• TCGA KIRC project: clinical information and normalized RNAseq data can be obtained from the GDC Data Portal of the National Cancer Insitute. the data set was first analyzed by Creighton and colleagues ¹. Data extraction was done with the TCGA-Assembler-2 script available from @compgenome365/TCGA-Assembler-2

• CheckMate 010, CheckMate 025 everolimus, CheckMate 025 nivolumab datasets: clinical information and normalized RNAseq data available as Supplementary Tables S1 and S4 accompanying the publication of Braun et al. ²

• RECA-EU project: clinical information and normalized RNAseq data can be downloaded from the ICGC Data Portal

• GSE73731 and GSE167093 datasets: normalized microarray expression data and clinical information ³⁴ can be accessed from Gene Expression Ominibus, e.g. with the GEOquery R package ⁵

• E-MTAB 1980 dataset: normalized microarray expression data and clinical information ⁶ can be obtained from ArrayExpressData
