Expression Profile of E-cadherin and N-cadherin in Urothelial Carcinoma of the Upper Urinary Tract is Associated with Disease Recurrence in Patients Undergoing Nephroureterectomy

These findings suggest that expression profiles of E-cadherin and N-cadherin, particularly the gain of N-cadherin rather than loss of E-cadherin expression, in UC-UUT appeared to be significantly associated with disease recurrence after nephroureterectomy.
