• Combining metabolical and morphological features using<sup>18</sup>F-FDG PET/CT improves the detection of malignant lymph node in patients with bladder cancer.
Zymography revealed higher levels of MMP-9 activity in the ovarian cancer biopsy samples than in other cancers studied, but in contrast to our previous observations in breast and bladder cancer, there was no correlation between MMP levels and tumor grade.
XIAP BIR domain suppresses miR-200a expression and subsequently promotes EGFR protein translation and anchorage-independent growth of bladder cancer cell.

X-ray-induced intrachromosomal DNA rearrangements were detected in the 5' region of the MYC gene of cells of the human bladder carcinoma cell line, EJ-30, by using PCR with inverted primers.
WW domain-containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) gene located in the common fragile site FRA16D region exhibits loss or reduction of expression in multiple types of carcinomas including bladder cancer.
WNT5A was a direct target of miR-374a in two bladder cancer cell lines. miR-374a mimic abrogated the metastatic potential and invasiveness of bladder cancer cells via WNT5A downregulation in both T24 and TCCSUP human bladder cancer cells; the opposite was observed with miR-374a inhibitor.
Without adjustment for multiple testing, multivariate analysis demonstrated an association with increased bladder cancer risk with PARP1rs8679 (P(trend) = 0.05) while variant homozygotes of PARP1rs8679 were also noted to have an increased breast cancer risk (P = 0.03).
Within the framework of a hospital-based case/control study, we investigated the relationship between CYP1A2 polymorphisms, occupational/environmental exposures and bladder cancer (BC) risk.
With the aim of using ecto-5'-nucleotidase/CD73 as a predictive biomarker, the role of this enzyme in the context of radiotherapy in T24 human bladder cancer cell line was investigated.
With respect to the stage of BC, the AA genotype of SDF-1 and at least one T allele of CXCR4 were significantly associated with high T stage as compared to GG genotype of SDF-1 and CC genotype of CXCR4.

With respect to TIMP-2 blood and urine levels, results showed a significant decrease in gene expression levels in bladder carcinoma group, whereas, TIMP-2 protein showed a significant increase in bladder carcinoma.
