Renal cancer incidence has been increasing across the world, clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) represents the major subtype of renal cancer. The proteasome is involved in onset, metabolism and survival of tumor and has been recognized as a therapeutic target for various malignancies, while the role of β subunits of proteasome, PSMB gene family, in ccRCC has not been fully unveiled.

Nephrolithiasis is one of the most common and frequent urologic diseases worldwide. The molecular mechanism of kidney stone formation is complex and remains to be illustrated. Transcript factors (TFs) that influenced the expression pattern of multiple genes, as well as microRNAs, important posttranscriptional modulators, play vital roles in this disease progression.
