Claudin-4 Immunoexpression in Urothelial Carcinomas.
2020
The involvement of claudins in urothelial carcinogenesis is controversial. In this study, we analyzed Claudin-4 immunoexpression in 50 cases of bladder urothelial carcinomas depending on the main prognostic parameters of the lesions represented by the tumor grade and tumor extension. Claudin-4 immunoexpression scores were significantly higher in high-grade urothelial carcinomas and in tumors with invasion in muscularis propria. The results obtained indicate the involvement of Claudin-4 in the progression of urothelial bladder carcinomas.
