Cathepsin D serum and urine concentration in superficial and invasive transitional bladder cancer as determined by surface plasmon resonance imaging

Abstract: Determination of cathepsin D (Cat D) concentration in serum and urine may be useful in the diagnosis of bladder cancer. The present study included 54 healthy patients and 68 patients with bladder cancer, confirmed by transurethral resection or cystectomy. Cat D concentration was determined using a surface plasmon resonance imaging biosensor. Cat D concentration in the serum of bladder cancer patients was within the range of 1.3–5.59 ng/ml, while for healthy donors it was within the range of 0.28–0.52 ng/ml. In… Show more

“…Though primarily located at cell lysosomes, their activity is not restricted to the acidic milieu of these organelles . Serum levels of cathepsin D have been evaluated in several conditions including bladder cancer and aging . Increased urinary levels of this protease were also linked to bladder cancer and in saliva its activity was associated to cystic fibrosis .…”

“…The determination of high concentration of the protein cathepsin D in urine can be used as a tumor marker in the diagnosis of bladder cancer. Recently, Gorodkiewicz et al 236 reported that cathepsin D concentration in the urine of bladder cancer patients was very high (1.35-7.14 ng/mL) compare to healthy donors (N ¼ 54) (0.32-0.68 ng/mL). A gas chromatography-sensor device was used for the diagnosis of bladder cancer based on volatile metabolites in urine.…”
