    Abstract Biochemical recurrence (BCR) is common after radical prostatectomy, but effective treatment options for men with BCR after curative treatment remain controversial. Although prostate-specific antigen is widely used as a surrogate marker for prostate cancer survival, it cannot fully differentiate between prostate-cancer-specific survival and overall survival. Thus, it is challenging for physicians to determine the timing of treatment to halt or slow the clinical progression of disease in patients with BCR while avoiding overtreatment for patients whose disease may not progress beyond BCR. Adjuvant therapy for radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy in intermediate- or high-risk localized prostate cancer has a benefit in terms of disease progression and survival but is not recommended in low-risk prostate cancer because of the significant adverse effects related to radiotherapy and androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT). Salvage radiotherapy (SRT) is also recommended for patients with BCR after radical prostatectomy. Several options for management of BCR after radical prostatectomy include SRT to the prostatic bed and/or pelvis, continuous or intermittent ADT, or observation. Patients' comorbidity, preferences, and cancer-related factors must be considered when deciding the best management strategy. Modern imaging technology such as positron emission tomography imaging of prostate-specific membrane antigen-positive regions enables earlier detection of disease progression, thus enhancing decision making for future disease management.

    Abstract Urothelial cell carcinoma (UCC) of the bladder and upper urinary tract is a heterogeneous disease with distinct biologic features resulting in different clinical behaviors. Bladder cancer (BC) is classified into non-muscle invasive BC (NMIBC) and muscle invasive BC (MIBC). NMIBC is associated with high recurrence rates and risk of progression to invasive disease, whereas MIBC is complicated by systemic recurrence after radical cystectomy because of the limited efficacy of available therapies. UCC of the upper urinary tract (UUT-UCC) is a rare but aggressive urologic cancer characterized by multifocality, local recurrence, and metastasis. Conventional histopathologic evaluation of UCC, including tumor stage and grade, cannot accurately predict the behavior of BC and UUT-UCC. Recent clinical and preclinical studies aimed at understanding the molecular landscape of UCC have provided insight into molecular subtyping, inter- or intratumoral heterogeneity, and potential therapeutic targets. Combined analysis of molecular markers and standard pathological features may improve risk stratification and help monitor tumor progression and treatment response, ultimately improving patient outcomes. This review discusses prognostic and therapeutic biomarkers for BC and UUT-UCC, and describes recent advances in molecular stratification that may guide prognosis, patient stratification, and treatment selection.

    Abstract Bisphenol A (BPA), an exogenous endocrine-disrupting chemical, is widely used to produce polycarbonate plastics. The widely used BPA has been detected in human urine samples, raising public anxiety about the detrimental effects of BPA on the bladder. In this study, we explored regulatory mechanisms for the adverse effects of BPA in human bladder BdFC and T24 cells. BPA induced extrinsic and intrinsic apoptosis and G2/M cell cycle arrest caused by the ATM-CHK1/CHK2-CDC25c-CDC2 signaling, which ultimately inhibited the growth of human bladder cells. We also found that BPA decreased the binding activity of AP-1 and NF-κB transcription factors in human bladder cells, which inhibited migration and invasion through matrix metallopeptidase-2 and -9 inactivation. Phosphorylation of MAPKs was implicated with BPA-mediated detrimental effects in human bladder cells. Collectively, our results provide a novel explanation for the underlying molecular mechanisms that BPA induces cytotoxicity in human bladder cells.

    Abstract The 5´-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key regulator of cellular metabolism and energy homeostasis in mammalian tissues. Metabolic adaptation is a critical step in ensuring cell survival during metabolic stress. Because of its critical role in the regulation of glucose homeostasis and carbohydrate, lipid, and protein metabolism, AMPK is involved in many human diseases, including cancers. Although AMPK signaling was originally characterized as a tumor-suppressive signaling pathway, several lines of evidence suggest that AMPK plays a much broader role and cannot simply be defined as either an oncogenic regulator or tumor suppressor. Notably, several recent studies demonstrated that the antitumorigenic effects of many indirect AMPK activators, such as metformin, do not depend on AMPK. Conversely, activation of AMPK induces the progression of cancers, emphasizing its oncogenic effect. Bladder cancer can be divided into two groups: non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) and muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). The molecular mechanisms underlying these two types of cancer are distinct: NMIBC is associated with activation of the Ras pathway, whereas MIBC is characterized by loss of major tumor suppressors. Importantly, both pathways are connected to the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway. In addition, our recent metabolomic findings suggest that β-oxidation of fatty acids is an important factor in the development of bladder cancer. Both mTOR and β-oxidation are tightly associated with the AMPK pathway. Here, I summarize and discuss the recent findings on the two distinct roles of AMPK in cancer, as well as the relationship between bladder cancer and AMPK.

    Abstract Purpose: T1 high grade (T1HG) bladder cancer (BC) is a type of non-muscle invasive BC (NMIBC) that is recognized as an aggressive subtype with a heightened propensity for progression. Current risk stratification methods for NMIBC rely on clinicopathological indicators; however, these approaches do not adequately capture the aggressive nature of T1HG BC. Thus, new, more accurate biomarkers for T1HG risk stratification are needed. Here, we enrolled three different patient cohorts and investigated expression of collagen type VI alpha 1 (
    Materials and methods: Samples from 298 BC patients were subjected to RNA sequencing and real-time polymerase chain reaction.
    Results: We found that T1HG BC and muscle invasive BC (MIBC) exhibited comparable expression of
