CXCR4 expression reflects tumor progression and regulates motility of bladder cancer cells. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

Article Abstract

Transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder remains life threatening due to the high occurrence of metastases. Emerging evidence suggests that chemokines and their receptors play a critical role in tumor metastases. In our study, we performed a systematic analysis of the mRNA and protein expression levels of all 18 chemokine receptors in normal urothelium and bladder cancer. CXCR4 was the only chemokine receptor whose mRNA expression level was upregulated in bladder cancer cell lines as well as in invasive and locally advanced bladder cancer tissue samples (pT2-pT4). In contrast, superficial bladder tumors (pTa and pT1) displayed low CXCR4 expression levels and normal urothelial cells were negative for CXCR4. Immunohistochemistry of a bladder cancer tissue microarray (TMA) confirmed that a subgroup of invasive bladder cancers revealed a high CXCR4 protein expression, while superficial bladder tumors showed low immunoreactivity. To investigate the functional significance of CXCR4 expression, we performed migration and invasion assays. Exposure of CXCR4-positive bladder cancer cells to CXCL12 in a Boyden chamber type assay provoked a significant increase in migration as well as invasion across a Matrigel barrier. Enhanced migration and invasion were inhibited by a CXCR4-specific blocking antibody. In contrast, normal urothelial cells did not respond to CXCL12 and lacked chemotactic migration. In conclusion, bladder cancer cells express CXCR4 progressively with advanced tumorigenesis and this receptor interacts with CXCL12 to mediate tumor chemotaxis and invasion through connective tissue. These properties identify CXCR4 as a potential target for the attenuation of bladder cancer metastases.

A 79-year old Caucasian male with metastatic hormone refractory prostate cancer and bilateral nephrostomy was admitted to the emergency department due to 4-day bloody urethral discharge, weakness and dizziness. The patient was treated with the luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone-antagonist and abiraterone acetate plus prednisone, dabigatran 150 mg bid (for atrial fibrillation and coronary heart disease) and 5-aminosalicylic acid for the management of mild ulcerative colitis. Imaging revealed bladder overdistention and blood analysis low levels of hematocrit (HCT) and hemoglobin (HGB) (HCT, 22%; HGB, 7.

Oxidative Stress and Cancer Risk in Schistosomiasis.

December 2024

Department of Medical Laboratory Science, School of Allied Health Sciences, University of Cape Coast, Cape Coast, Ghana.

Schistosomiasis is considered one of the most devastating parasitic diseases globally, coming second only to malaria in terms of morbidity. The disease-causing parasite can inhabit the body for over a decade, leading to imbalances in the host's metabolic systems. The flukes and their eggs can illicit various immunological and metabolic complications resulting in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

The aim of the present study was to determine the prognostic significance of a novel marker, the red cell distribution width to lymphocyte percentage (RDW-to-LYM%) ratio, in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) after radical nephroureterectomy (RNU). The clinical and follow-up data of 625 patients with UTUC receiving RNU were retrospectively analyzed. The optimal cut-off value of the pre-treatment RDW-to-LYM% ratio was determined as 0.
