Zusammenfassung
Ein vorrangiges Ziel des nationalen Netzwerkes „Deutscher Forschungsverbund Blasenkarzinom e.V.“ ist es, eine Plattform zu bieten, auf der wissenschaftliche Aktivitäten im Bereich der Blasenkarzinomforschung gebündelt und kommuniziert werden. Einen fundierten Überblick über aktuelle Arbeiten auf diesem Forschungsgebiet bot die Jahrestagung der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Urologie vom 22. bis 25. September 2010 in Düsseldorf. In diesem Artikel werden einige der interessanten Beiträge zum Thema Blasenkarzinomforschung inhaltlich zusammengefasst und kommentiert. Ein Schwerpunkt wurde insbesondere auf das Urothelkarzinom im Bereich der Uropathologie und die präklinische Forschung gelegt.
Abstract
One of the principal objects of the scientific research network “German Bladder Cancer Network” is to consolidate research activities on bladder cancer. An overview about directions of current projects on this research topic was given at the annual meeting of the German Association of Urology in Düsseldorf from September 22 to 25 September 2010. As representatives of the“German Bladder Cancer Network” we summarize and comment on some of the most interesting projects on bladder cancer presented at this meeting. A special focus will be on current developments in the field of uropathology and on different aspects in preclinical research on bladder cancer.
