Proteomic strategies in bladder cancer: From tissue to fluid and back

Abstract: We have applied protein expression profiling technologies in combination with immunohistochemistry, using fresh tissue and urine samples, to assess bladder cancer heterogeneity and prognosis as well as to generate protein markers for tumor progression and early diagnosis of the disease. Here, we review some selected lines of investigation and approaches undertaken by our laboratory, drawing on more than 15 years of experience in bladder cancer proteomics, to highlight a number of issues that may be useful for … Show more

“…Tests include the bladder tumor antigen (BTA) (10), nuclear matrix protein 22 (NMP-22) (11, 12), BLCA-4, cytokeratin (13), psoriasin (S100A7) (14), fibronectin (FG)/degradation products (FDPs) (15, 16), zinc-alpha2-glycoprotein (17). However, these markers have limited sensitivity, so alone they are not yet sufficient to replace the gold standards of urine cytology or cystoscopy (18, 19).…”

“…This protein-rich fluid is neither as variable or diluted as urine, nor as complex as serum. Therefore, it represents a new and interesting fluid for biomarker discovery [33].…”

“…Although nucleic acid‐based diagnostic technologies have been introduced for clinical practice, historically protein‐based tests have been used for clinical examinations, because proteins reflect the dynamic change in association with disease status in contrast to genes. The protein‐based tests using biological body fluids have the advantage because body fluids might not contain nucleic acids . In addition, proteomics can resolve some problems, such as post‐translational modifications, intracellular localization, protein turnover, protein–protein interactions and so on, which cannot be addressed by genomics.…”
