Identification, molecular characterization, clinical prognosis, and therapeutic targeting of human bladder tumor-initiating cells

TL;DR: The isolation and characterization of a tumor-initiating cell (T-IC) subpopulation in primary human bladder cancer is described, based on the expression of markers similar to that of normal bladder basal cells, which effectively distinguishes muscle-invasive bladder cancer with worse clinical prognosis from non-muscle-in invasive (superficial) cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cisplatin, methotrexate, and vinblastine (CMV): an effective chemotherapy regimen for metastatic transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary tract. A Northern California Oncology Group study.

TL;DR: CMV is an effective regimen for patients with metastatic transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder and prolonged disease-free survival may result from a CR to this regimen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pediatric Urinary Tract Infections

TL;DR: Patients with documented evidence of renal scarring should be followed up for signs of renal deterioration and hypertension and treatment should be tailored to the pathogen as dictated by the urine culture sensitivities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three differentiation states risk-stratify bladder cancer into distinct subtypes.

TL;DR: The data indicate that bladder cancer can be subclassified into three subtypes, on the basis of their differentiation states: basal, intermediate, and differentiated, where only the most primitive tumor cell subpopulation within each subtype is capable of generating xenograft tumors and recapitulating downstream populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Treatment of urinary incontinence by the periurethral implantation of glutaraldehyde cross-linked collagen.

TL;DR: This investigation shows that glutaraldehyde cross-linked collagen can be injected into the urinary tract to correct urinary incontinence without observable or measurable morbidity.
