Metabolic Profiling for the Detection of Bladder Cancer

Abstract: The development and progression of many human diseases often result in changes in gene expression and protein and metabolite concentrations. Changes at the protein and metabolite level often are detectable in biological fluids and tissues before the appearance of clinical symptoms, rendering them useful diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers. As with many conditions, the discovery of a sensitive and specific urinary biomarker for bladder cancer would save lives and reduce the suffering due to this condition. A n… Show more

“…However, cohort sizes were small in most studies and the effects of renal cancer and bladder inflammation were the major problem in BCa detection (Van et al, 2011). In conclusion, MS-based metabolomics can improve BCa detection and risk stratification but the financial burden may hinder comprehensive routine implementation.…”

“…Bladder cancer diagnosis is another example where NMR-based metabolomic analysis can provide an exceptionally sensitive and specific noninvasive monitoring approach [43]. Metabolomics enables analysis of a significant number of small molecules in one step, which presents vast potential for exploring marker compounds to monitor a treatment response and recurrence in patients suffering from bladder cancer [44].…”

“…Current BC diagnoses are primarily based on urinary cytology and cystoscopy. However, the diagnostic sensitivity of urinary cytology is low, and cystoscopy is invasive and costly [5]. Hence, there is an urgent need to find new noninvasive, inexpensive biomarkers with high sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of BC.…”
