Bladder cancer

A number sign (#) is used with this entry because bladder cancer is a complex disorder with both genetic and environmental influences. Somatic mutations in several genes, e.g., HRAS (190020), KRAS2 (190070), RB1 (614041), and FGFR3 (134934), have been implicated in bladder carcinogenesis. See Bishop (1982) for a discussion of oncogenes.

CLINICAL FEATURES

Patients with cancer of the urinary bladder often present with multiple tumors appearing at different times and at different sites in the bladder. This observation had been attributed to a 'field defect' in the bladder that allowed the independent transformation of epithelial cells at a number of sites. Sidransky et al. (1992) tested this hypothesis with molecular genetic techniques and concluded that in fact multiple bladder tumors are of clonal origin. A number of bladder tumors can arise from the uncontrolled spread of a single transformed cell. These tumors can then grow independently with variable subsequent genetic alterations. Dyrskjot et al. (2003) reported the identification of clinically relevant subclasses of bladder carcinoma using expression microarray analysis of 40 well-characterized bladder tumors. Gene expression profiles characterizing each stage and subtype identified their biologic properties, producing potential targets for therapy.

INHERITANCE

Fraumeni and Thomas (1967) observed affected father and 3 sons. McKusick (1972) encountered 2 instances of affected father and son at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. McCullough et al. (1975) found transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) in 6 persons in 3 sibships of 2 generations of a kindred. In a review of case reports and epidemiologic studies in the literature, Kiemeney and Schoenberg (1996) concluded that first-degree relatives have an increased risk for TCC by a factor of 2. Familial clustering of smoking did not appear to be the cause of this increased risk. In Iceland, Kiemeney et al. (1997) studied the first- to third-degree relatives of 190 patients with bladder, ureter, or renal pelvis TCC diagnosed between 1983 and 1992. In 41 of the 190 pedigrees, at least 1 relative had TCC of the urinary tract. Of the probands, 38 had only 1 and 3 had 2 affected relatives. The prevalence of family history of TCC was 3% in first-degree and 10% in first- or second-degree relatives. The risk of TCC among all relatives was slightly elevated, the observed-to-expected ratio being greater among second- and third-degree relatives than among first-degree relatives. Kiemeney et al. (1997) concluded that the greater risk among distant relatives argues against the existence of a hereditary subtype of bladder TCC, at least in the founder population of Iceland.

MAPPING

Goldfarb et al. (1982) studied the DNA from T24, a cell line derived from a human bladder carcinoma, which can induce the morphologic transformation of nonmalignant cells. The gene responsible for this transformation was cloned by techniques of gene rescue: it was shown to be human in origin and less than 5 kb long. By Southern blot analysis of human-rodent hybrid cell DNA, de Martinville et al. (1983) found that the cellular homolog of the transforming DNA sequence isolated from the bladder carcinoma line EJ is located on the short arm of chromosome 11, which contains sequences homologous to the HRAS (190020) oncogene. No evidence of gene amplification was found. These workers also found karyologically 'a complex rearrangement of the short arm in two of ... More on the omim web site
