Microbiota in Urine and Urothelium Can be a Factor for Induction of Urinary Bladder Cancer. The Study Will Examine Urine and Bladder Tissues From Egyptian Male Patients and Controls Using Whole Genomic Sequencing Techniques and 16S rRNA. The Aim is to Elucidate Role of Microbiota in Bladder Cancer.
Profiling Urinary Microbiota in Male Patients With Bladder Cancer- An Exploratory Study.
About This Trial
Microbes inhabiting the urinary tract that are playing an important role in maintenance of health and the development of diseases and bladder cancer. There is correlation between initiation of bladder cancer and microbes. Urine and bladder tissues from healthy individuals and patients with bladder cancer were analyzed using 16S rRNA sequencing, results show abundant phylum. Next-generation sequencing technologies will be applied with whole genomic and 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing for microbiota profiling in urine and bladder tissue of male healthy individuals and patients with bladder cancer. Results will lead to prevention, diagnosis, and new treatment strategies for bladder cancer.
