KRT14 Drives Basal Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer Progression and Lung Metastasis by Directly Binding to and Stabilizing IGF2BP1. (PubMed, Adv Sci (Weinh))
Functional disruption of this axis suppressed primary tumor progression and lung metastasis in BMIBC models. Collectively, our findings define the KRT14-IGF2BP1 axis as a previously unrecognized, potentially targetable vulnerability in BMIBC, whose inhibition may limit aggressive disease progression and inform future therapeutic strategies.

The evolving landscape and clinical utility of circulating tumor DNA across the spectrum of urothelial carcinoma: A systematic review and framework for clinical integration. (PubMed, Cancer)
Stage-tailored strategies are emerging, including risk assessment in NMIBC, refining adjuvant decisions in MIBC, and treatment monitoring in mUC. Integration of ctDNA-guided approaches should proceed alongside prospective validation to ensure safe and effective adoption.

Targeting HER2 in Urothelial Carcinoma: Why Histologic Subtypes and Divergent Histologies Matter. (PubMed, Clin Genitourin Cancer)
However, interpretation is constrained by small retrospective series, assay discordance, and the absence of standardized HER2 scoring criteria for UC. In the antibody-drug conjugate era, resolving these subtype-specific and methodological uncertainties is essential for refining patient selection and defining the clinical role of HER2-directed therapy across histologic subtypes and divergent histologist.

Very late extragonadal recurrence of testicular seminoma presenting as a bladder mass: a case report. (PubMed, Ann Med Surg (Lond))
It also emphasizes that normal tumor marker levels do not exclude recurrence and that histopathological confirmation remains essential for accurate diagnosis. Recognition of unusual presentations in long-term survivors of germ cell tumors is important to facilitate timely diagnosis and appropriate management.

EP300 promotes bladder cancer cell migration through SNAI2. (PubMed, PLoS One)
Indeed, overexpression of SNAI2 enhanced the migratory capacity of bladder cancer cells via Transwell assay. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that EP300 promoted bladder cancer cell migration via up-regulating SNAI2, targeting EP300 could be a potential therapeutic strategy to inhibit the process of bladder cancer invasion.

Elevated ICAM5 as a promising predictor of poor prognosis in bladder cancer via EMT, immune microenvironment, and therapy resistance. (PubMed, PLoS One)
ICAM5 serves as a novel prognostic biomarker and potential therapeutic target in bladder cancer, orchestrating EMT progression, reshaping the immune microenvironment, and driving resistance to immunotherapy.

A pan-cancer single-cell analysis of intratumoral copy number diversity and evolution. (PubMed, Cancer Discov)
Many tumors accumulated CNAs in bursts of evolution, suggesting that punctuated evolution is common in diverse cancer types. This study greatly improves our knowledge of intratumoral chromosome diversity across human cancers.
