title: [Research advances on bladder cancer associated genes].
abstract: Bladder cancer is the most common urinary tumors in China. Carcinogenesis of bladder is a multistep process. Accumulation of abnormal genotypes in a long period leads to malignant phenotypes. The genes associated with bladder carcinogenesis include oncogenes (such as H-ras, FGFR3, erbB2, CCND1, mdm2), tumor suppressor genes (such as INK4A/ARF, Rb, TP53, PTEN, TSC1, PTCH, DBCCR1), and DNA mismatch repair genes, etc. In this review, the authors discussed the recent research advances on the genes associated with bladder carcinoma.
