Although great strides continue to be made each year in the diagnosis and management of bladder cancer considerably more work needs to be done in order to improve the lives of patients with this disease.
Urinary biomarkers for surveillance of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer
- Medicine, Biology
- 2019
Urinary biomarkers for surveillance of nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer have several potential applications including: 1) diagnosing BC in patients presenting with haematuria, 2) detecting recurrences and progression in patients treated for NMIBC, 3) assessing response to Bacillus Calmette-Guerin treatment and 4) as an adjunct in cases whereby cytology is equivocal.

Mechanisms of Disease: genetic and epigenetic alterations that drive bladder cancer
- Medicine, BiologyNature Clinical Practice Urology

A model for the mechanisms behind bladder cancer development is proposed and global trends of increased genomic instability and aberrant methylation of cytosine residues in DNA correlate with increased tumor invasion and progression.

It is postulated that the loss of the function of wild-type p53 allows cells with DNA damage to proceed through the cell cycle, replicating genetic errors, and thus decreased pRb expression in bladder cancer correlates with increased mitotic index.
Molecular characterization of early-stage bladder carcinomas by expression profiles, FGFR3 mutation status, and loss of 9q
- BiologyOncogene
- 2006
The combined analyses suggest the existence of two types of UCC tumors, one which is characterized by FGFR3 mutation or expression, high expression of protein synthesis genes, and low expression of cell cycle genes.
The p53 tumor suppressor gene and nuclear protein: basic science review and relevance in the management of bladder cancer.
- Biology, MedicineThe Journal of urology
- 2003
The basic constitutive functions of p53 are outlined, its current role in the management of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder appears somewhat limited, and the importance of p 53 mutation in tumor cell biology is irrefutable.
Association between smoking and risk of bladder cancer among men and women.
- MedicineJAMA

Compared with a pooled estimate of US data from cohorts initiated between 1963 and 1987, relative risks for smoking in the more recent NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study cohort were higher, with PARs for women comparable with those for men.
Bladder Cancer in Women
- MedicineInternational Urogynecology Journal
- 1999
In women bladder cancer usually occurs above the age of 60 and comprises 3% of all female cancers, which must be investigated by radiological imaging and cystoscopy, and management of invasive disease warrants extensive surgery, which is the best single treatment modality.
