Article Abstract
Background: The literature on the role of pleomorphic adenoma gene 1 (PLAG1) in malignant tumors is limited. This study aimed to perform pan-cancer analysis of PLAG1.
Methods: The expression of PLAG1 was analyzed by Human Protein Atlas (HPA). The differential expression and prognosis of PLAG1 were analyzed based on TCGA pan-cancer data. The relationship between PLAG1 expression and tumor heterogeneity, stemness and immune infiltration was investigated. The enrichment analysis and biological function of PLAG1 in bladder cancer were analyzed.
Results: The expression of PLAG1 was increased in a variety of tumors and significantly correlated with the prognosis of patients. Their expression levels were associated with key immune checkpoint genes (CD274, HAVCR2), immune infiltration and immune stimulation factors (CD48, CD27). In bladder cancer, functional enrichment analysis indicated that PLAG1 was involved in epidermal related processes and immune pathways. PLAG1 gene expression reduction can significantly inhibit the proliferation of bladder cancer cells.
Conclusions: PLAG1 has the potential to be a prognostic marker and a potential therapeutic target for patients with malignant tumors.

MAP30 inhibits proliferation and metastasis of bladder cancer by increasing EGR1 expression and promoting the transcriptional activation of DUSP1.

The confirmed tumor-inhibitory effects of the 30 kDa Momordica anti-human immunodeficiency virus protein (MAP30) have yet to be complemented by an exploration into its mechanism of action on tumor development and metastasis. For this purpose, we delved into the intrinsic mechanism of MAP30 in bladder cancer (BC). Here, we demonstrated that MAP30 markedly suppressed the proliferation, migration, invasion, and angiogenic capabilities of human BC cells in vitro, and the tumor metastatic potential in vivo.

Rationale And Objectives: This study systematically evaluates the diagnostic performance of artificial intelligence (AI)-driven and conventional radiomics models in detecting muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) through meta-analytical approaches. Furthermore, it investigates their potential synergistic value with the Vesical Imaging-Reporting and Data System (VI-RADS) and assesses clinical translation prospects.
Methods: This study adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.
Cancer-specific mortality in secondary bladder cancer after nephroureterectomy for upper tract urothelial carcinoma.

Objective: To examine differences in cancer-specific mortality (CSM) in nonmetastatic upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) patients with vs. without secondary bladder cancer (BCa) after radical nephroureterectomy (RNU).
Methods: Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (SEER 2000-2021), T1-T4N0M0 UTUC patients treated with RNU and diagnosed with secondary BCa were identified.

Purpose: Urinary toxicity following radical prostatectomy (RP) and postoperative radiotherapy (RT) includes urinary incontinence and vesicourethral anastomosis (VUA) strictures. With the increasing use of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), dose-escalation, and reirradiation within the prostate bed (PB), standardization of the definition of urinary organs at risk (OARs) in the post-RP setting is needed. This works aims to provide a comprehensive review of the anatomical and physiopathological changes occurring after RP, as well as to provide a consensus on urinary OARs delineation for prostate cancer (PCa) EBRT in the post-RP setting.
