Abstract

Purpose

Recent studies indicate that circulating microRNAs in serum/plasma are a novel class of non-invasive biomarkers with diagnostic and prognostic information. So far, circulating microRNAs have not been analyzed in patients with bladder cancer.

Methods

We collected serum from patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) and non-malignant urological disease. Total RNA was isolated from 400 μl of serum using the mirVana PARIS Kit; the artificial cel-miR-39 was spiked-in prior to RNA isolation to control different RNA isolation efficiencies. Quantitative real-time PCR was applied to measure the levels of 22 microRNAs upregulated in BCA tissue (miR-15a, miR-18a, miR-21, miR-93, miR-96, miR-103, miR-130b, miR-135b, miR-141, miR-182, miR-183, miR-190, miR-191, miR-200b, miR-422b, miR-425, miR-449b, miR-601, miR-639, miR-644, miR-649 and miR-1233) in the marker identification cohort (NMIBC, n = 11, MIBC, n = 10; controls, n = 10). The most promising serum microRNAs were tested in a validation cohort (NMIBC, n = 65, MIBC, n = 61; controls, n = 105).

Results

The RNA recovery was similar in patients with NMIBC, MIBC and control subjects. The analysis of serum microRNA levels in the marker identification cohort indicated that serum miR-141 and miR-639 levels were increased in bladder cancer patients compared to CTRL. The analysis of these miR-141 and miR-639 in the validation cohort demonstrated that microRNA levels were similar in bladder cancer patients and control subjects. Furthermore, microRNA levels were not correlated with clinicopathological parameters (pT-stage, metastasis, grading).

Conclusions

The analysis of serum miR-141 and miR-639 levels does not seem to be helpful in the diagnosis or prognosis of BCA.

ADT zur Radiatio nach Prostatektomie: Wenn, dann wohl länger

24.05.2024 Prostatakarzinom Nachrichten

Welchen Nutzen es trägt, wenn die Strahlentherapie nach radikaler Prostatektomie um eine Androgendeprivation ergänzt wird, hat die RADICALS-HD-Studie untersucht. Nun liegen die Ergebnisse vor. Sie sprechen für länger dauernden Hormonentzug.

„Überwältigende“ Evidenz für Tripeltherapie beim metastasierten Prostata-Ca.

22.05.2024 Prostatakarzinom Nachrichten

Patienten mit metastasiertem hormonsensitivem Prostatakarzinom sollten nicht mehr mit einer alleinigen Androgendeprivationstherapie (ADT) behandelt werden, mahnt ein US-Team nach Sichtung der aktuellen Datenlage. Mit einer Tripeltherapie haben die Betroffenen offenbar die besten Überlebenschancen.

„Übersichtlicher Wegweiser“: Lauterbachs umstrittener Klinik-Atlas ist online

17.05.2024 Klinik aktuell Nachrichten

Sie sei „ethisch geboten“, meint Gesundheitsminister Karl Lauterbach: mehr Transparenz über die Qualität von Klinikbehandlungen. Um sie abzubilden, lässt er gegen den Widerstand vieler Länder einen virtuellen Klinik-Atlas freischalten.

Alphablocker schützt vor Miktionsproblemen nach der Biopsie

16.05.2024 alpha-1-Rezeptorantagonisten Nachrichten

Nach einer Prostatabiopsie treten häufig Probleme beim Wasserlassen auf. Ob sich das durch den periinterventionellen Einsatz von Alphablockern verhindern lässt, haben australische Mediziner im Zuge einer Metaanalyse untersucht.
