To investigate the expression pattern of a novel long noncoding ribonucleic acid (RNA), RCCRT1, in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tissues among the patients with various clinicopathologic features and to detect the role of RCCRT1 in migration and invasion of RCC in vitro.We found out a novel long noncoding RNA, RCCRT1, that expressed differently between high-grade (Fuhrman grade III-IV) and low-grade...
To compare ERG expression and gene rearrangements rates in metastatic and castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) to localized disease as ERG is the most common genetic event in early prostate cancer (PCa) with potential prognostic and therapeutic implications.We evaluated ERG protein expression in 344 patients with PCa in 3 cohorts including localized, metastatic, and castration-resistant disease...
To assess the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of transperitoneal laparoendoscopic single-site (LESS) adrenalectomy and determine whether it shows any objective advantage compared with standard laparoscopy. From August 2009 to May 2011, 13 transperitoneal LESS adrenalectomies were performed through a 2-3-cm skin incision using the TriPort access system. This cohort was compared with a contemporary...
To assess the urologic symptoms among patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and to explore whether a higher classification of CHF increases the risk associated with overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) and lower urinary tract symptoms. A total of 214 ambulatory patients with CHF (129 men and 85 women) and 378 age-matched subjects (222 men and 156 women) were enrolled in the present study. The...
To determine whether diabetes mellitus and the associated changes in bladder function will trigger bladder wall tissue remodeling and concomitant alterations in the mechanical properties. We investigated the time course of changes in function and mechanical properties of diabetic and diuretic rat bladders using both in vivo and in vitro techniquesCystometry was performed at 2, 4, and 8 weeks on female...
To investigate time-course changes in the expression of select genes and extracellular matrix proteins in the bladder of rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes, so as to examine the mechanisms underlying changes in mechanical properties of the bladder due to diabetic cystopathy.Female Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with streptozotocin (65 mg/kg). Rats that were fed with 5% sucrose in drinking...
