HOXB13 is a key lineage homeobox transcription factor that plays a critical role in the differentiation of the prostate gland. Several studies have suggested that HOXB13 alterations may be involved in prostate cancer development and progression.
Purpose: Bladder cancer (BCa) is generally considered one of the most prevalent deadly diseases worldwide. Patients suffering from muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) possess dismal prognoses, while those with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) generally have a favorable outcome after local treatment.
The transcription factor GATA binding protein 3 (GATA3) is commonly used in surgical pathology as a diagnostic marker to distinguish urothelial carcinomas from other cancer entities. However, the clinical relevance of GATA3 expression in urothelial bladder cancer is not completely clarified.
The aim of this study was to identify novel genetic features of Hunner's lesion interstitial cystitis (HIC) via comprehensive analysis of the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.
The GSE11783 and GSE28242 datasets were downloaded from GEO for further analysis.
Our previous high-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry study identified bladder cancer (BCA)-specific urine metabolites, including carnitine, acylcarnitines, and melatonin.
The potential use of urinary nucleic acids as diagnostic markers in prostate cancer (PCa) was evaluated. Ninety-five urine samples and 234 prostate tissue samples from patients with PCa and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) were analyzed.
