Gene Expression Profiles Identified Novel Urine Biomarkers for Diagnosis and Prognosis of High-Grade Bladder Urothelial Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Bladder urothelial carcinoma (BC) has been identified as one of the most common malignant neoplasm worldwide. High-grade bladder urothelial carcinoma (HGBC) is aggressive with a high risk of recurrence, progression, metastasis, and poor prognosis. Therefore, HGBC clinical management is still a challenge. We performed the present study to seek new urine biomarkers for HGBC and investigate how they promote HGBC progression and thus affect the prognosis based on large-scale sequencing data. We identified the overlapped differentially expressed genes (DEGs) by combining GSE68020 and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets. Subsequent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves, and Cox regression were conducted to test the diagnostic and prognostic role of the hub
