June 24th, 2008
According to recent research published in the journal Clinical Cancer Research, "The purpose of this study was to identify proteins that are potentially involved in the tumor invasion of bladder cancer. We searched for the candidate proteins by comparing the profiles of secreted proteins among the poorly invasive human bladder carcinoma cell line RT112 and the highly invasive cell line T24." "The proteins isolated from cell culture supernatants were identified by shotgun proteomics. We found that CXCL1 is related to the tumor invasion of bladder cancer cells. We also evaluated whether the amount of the chemokine CXCL1 in the urine would be a potential marker for...
