Is urinary soluble Fas an independent predictor of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer?
Our study indicated that urinary sFas assay results may help identify NMIBC patients at risk of tumor recurrence. These data can be used to design a future follow-up schedule and treatment strategy for NMIBC patients.
Persistent chronic inflammation in patients with CGD is associated with hematopoietic proliferative stress, leading to a decrease in the functional activity of HSCs. Our observations have clinical implications for the development of successful autologous cell therapy approaches.
