Bladder Cancer Patients with Elevated SPRR1B Expression Experiencing a Poor Prognosis.

Background: , a member of the small proline-rich protein family, is implicated in various epithelial cancers as a potential oncogene linked to tumour growth and poor survival outcomes. However, its role in urothelial bladder carcinoma (UBC) remains to be fully elucidated.

Methods: Transcriptional profiling data from The Cancer Genome Atlas grouped UBC samples in accordance with expression.

SRT1720 inhibits bladder cancer cell progression by impairing autophagic flux.

Bladder cancer (BC) is the most common cancer of the urinary tract, with poor survival, high recurrence rates, and lacking of targeted drugs. In this study, we constructed a library to screen compounds inhibiting bladder cancer cells growth. Among them, SRT1720 was identified to inhibit bladder cancer cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo.

Raltitrexed induces apoptosis through activating ROS-mediated ER stress by impeding HSPA8 expression in prostate cancer cells.

Prostate cancer is the most common malignant tumor in males, which frequently develops into castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). CRPC metastasis is the main reason for its high mortality rate. At present, it lacks effective treatment for patients with CRPC.

Comparison of 3 and 4 cycles of neoadjuvant gemcitabine and cisplatin for muscle-invasive bladder cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: In muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) combined with radical cystectomy (RC) is critical in reducing disease recurrence, with GC (gemcitabine and cisplatin) being one of the most commonly used NACs. Different GC schedules have been used, but the best neoadjuvant regimen is still unknown. The clinical outcomes of 3 and 4 cycles of neoadjuvant GC are compared in this systematic review and meta-analysis to determine which is best for patients with MIBC.
