Аннотация:It has recently been shown that combination of arrestin and recoverin can serve as an effective urinary biomarker for renal cell carcinoma with sensitivity and specificity of over 92%. In this work, we studied the possibility of detecting these antigens in the urine in other urological oncological diseases – bladder cancer (BC) and prostate cancer (PCa). Urine samples from 40 BC patients and 40 PCa patients were analyzed using an ultrasensitive microarray immunoassay with a detection limit of 0.1 pg/ml. It was shown that in BC the sensitivity of determining combination of arrestin with recoverin is 58% (AUC 0.76, 95% CI 0.66-0.86), while in PCa it is 60% (AUC 0.7, 95% CI 0.68-0.88). It has been established that in patients with bladder and prostate cancer who had a positive test, these antigens are not detected in 90% of cases after removal of the tumor. In the future, the obtained results could become the basis for developing new approaches for timely detection of relapses of such diseases and treatment control, as well as for the development of new diagnostic methods.
