Abstract

Aims: To describe the expression profile of Micro RNAs (miRNAs) in patients with bladder cancer patients. The greatest advance in the search for a biomarker has been seen since 2007, the year in which it was identified that Micro RNAs are altered in cancer, understanding that miRNAs can function as tumor suppressors or as oncogenes, in more recent studies it is identified that miRNAs are highly stable and resistant to handling and can be determined by various methods in fresh or fixed tissue, in serum, plasma, urine and saliva, making them candidates for biomarkers for early detection, monitoring and treatment efficacy in bladder cancer. Material and methods: Observational, prospective, cross-sectional and descriptive study in patients diagnosed with bladder cancer between October 1, 2018 and December 1, 2019 with a non-randomized, non-probabilistic sampling by criteria, comparing the expression profile of MiRNAs in serum, against a healthy population, excluding patients with some other type of synchronous cancer. Results: The expression profile of MiRNAs in serum was obtained from 33 patients diagnosed with bladder cancer and 33 cancer-free patients with similar demographic characteristics, finding similar behavior to that of the current literature in our population. Conclusions : Under-expression and overexpression of MiRNAs were identified with similar results to the international literature, so it is considered that MiRNAs have a high potential to be used as biomarkers for bladder cancer.
