| Research Abstract |
We found the novel cancer marker protein, periplakin, which disappeared appearance by proteomics analysis of the large molecular weight in bladder cancer. We aimed to establish the noncritical inspection method in urine and examining the PPL appearance in the immunohistochemical analysis. In this study, PPL appearance by the shift epithelial cell in urine has significantly decreased in the cancer patient group compared with the control group. Consequently, it was done by immunostaining of PPL and urinary cytology and using it together the possibility of improving the diagnosis.
