Genetic and molecular biology of bladder cancer among Iranian patients

Abstract: Background Bladder cancer (BC) is the sixth common cancer among Iranians. Various risk factors such as smoking, body mass index, chronic infection, age, and genetic factors are associated with BC progression. Methods It has been shown that a significant ratio of patients have tumors with muscle bladder layer invasion and poor prognosis at the time of diagnosis. Therefore, the early detection of tumors is required to reduce the mortality rate of BC cases. Since there is a wide geographical incidence variation i… Show more

“…The BCa is also three to four times more frequent among males compared with females [5]. The prevalence of BCa can be associated with environmental and genetic determinants, which are different among racial/ethnic groups [6,7]. Based on histopathologic features of tumor cells, there are three main types of BCa including: transitional cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and adenocarcinoma, which account for 90, 5%, and less than 2% of BCa cases, respectively [8].…”

“…Clinicopathological features are commonly used to predict tumor growth, recurrence, and patient’s survival. However, the gene expression profiling and molecular pathway analysis have gained growing attention as a novel and promising methods for the prediction of disease course and prognosis in BCa patients [ 7 , 30 , 31 ]. Since, tyrosine-kinases have essential roles in BCa progression, in present review we have summarized all of the studies which have been assessed the role of tyrosine-kinases in BCa patients in the world (Table 1 ).…”

“…Therefore, our survival analyze for this period did not provide additional results. Second, we did not include other factors that may affect OS, such as economic conditions (31), marital status (32), genetic factors (33)(34)(35), posttreatment care status (36,37), and patient physical status. The inclusion of these factors would further make the nomogram more accurate.…”

“…Regarding the chemotherapeutic resistance, many patients are faced with side effects without any efficient benefit. Genetic factors are associated with drug resistance through regulation of drug efflux, DNA repair, cell cycle, and apoptosis [11][12][13]. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a class of RNAs including long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA), micro RNAs (miRNA), and circular RNAs (circRNA) which are involved in post transcriptional regulation.…”
