Aberrantly glycosylated integrin ?3?1 is a unique urinary biomarker for the diagnosis of bladder cancer.

ABSTRACT: Bladder cancer (BC) is the most common malignancy of the urinary tract. We developed a new and ELISA kit for detecting aberrantly glycosylated integrin ?3?1 (AG31) in human urine. We analysed urine samples (n=408) of patients with BC, renal cell carcinoma (RCC), prostate cancer (PC), cystitis, nephritis, and prostatitis from two centres in China. The subjects in the validation groups (n=2317) were recruited from other centres in China between July 2012 and September 2013. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine diagnostic accuracy. AG31 levels in urine samples were significantly higher in patients with BC than in any of the control subjects. Moreover, elevated levels of AG31 in urine could distinguish BC from benign inflammatory diseases. Finally, the urinary AG31 test was much more sensitive and specific than the NMP22 test. Therefore, the urinary AG31 test will provide an ideal and assay for the detection of BCs.

Project description:BackgroundThe objective of this study was to evaluate Octamer-binding transcription factor 4 (Oct-4), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and body mass index (BMI) as independent prognostic biomarkers for prediction of urinary bladder cancer (UBC) outcomes. With the advancement in prognostic biomarker discovery, tumor recurrence is difficult to accurately predict in UBC. UBC is costly to treat due to the requirement of frequent invasive follow-up sessions. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to evaluate good prognostic biomarkers for UBC surveillance.MethodsWe studied 39 UBC tissue samples. Oct-4 protein expression was evaluated semiquantitatively by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Complete blood count data and body weight as well as the height of the patients were retrieved and recorded before the date of the first transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). The follow-up period was 48 months for recurrence-free survival (RFS), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS).ResultsOct-4 expression profile was found to be significantly associated with gender (p = 0.028), tumor grade (p = 0.038), tumor stage (p = 0.003), lymph node status (p = 0.029), recurrence (p = 0.004), progression (p = 0.011), and treatment modality (p = 0.016). Tumor grade and progression were found significant with NLR values (tumor grade, p = 0.006; progression, p = 0.038) and BMI (tumor grade, p = 0.036; progression, p = 0.014). Moreover, BMI was also significantly associated with UBC recurrence (p = 0.014). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed poor prognosis with both high Oct-4 expression (RFS, p = 0.001; PFS, p = 0.004; OS, p = 0.014) and high NLR values (RFS, p = 0.049; PFS, p = 0.004; OS, p = 0.005). Patients with high BMI too had poor RFS (p = 0.025) and poor PFS (p = 0.032). Furthermore, multivariate Cox regression analysis, indicated Oct-4 as an independent prognostic biomarker for RFS (HR = 0.240, 95% CI, 0.072-0.804, p = 0.021).ConclusionsWe conclude that the expression profile of Oct-4 will be beneficial in prediction of UBC recurrence, and could have profound implications on the development of new therapeutic targets for UBC treatment.
