Does tumour-suppressive microRNA-144-5p directly target CCNE1/2 as potential prognostic markers in bladder cancer?
miR-144-5p functions as tumour suppressor in BC cells. CCNE1 and CCNE2 were directly regulated by miR-144-5p and might be good prognostic markers for survival of BC patients.
The three methods of bladder cuff excision (TUI, extravesical, and intravesical) are oncologically valid with similar recurrence and metastases rates when performed during laparoscopic radical nephroureterectomy. Stage, positive margin status and CIS are predictive of adverse oncologic outcomes and can facilitate postoperative prognostication.
