Metastatic pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma(MPPGL)is a rare neuroendocrine tumour in which genetic factors play an important role.In recent years,with the continuous progress of genetic testing technol-ogy,more and more susceptibility genes have been proved to be associated with MPPGL,making early identifica-tion of MPPGL possible.Recent studies have shown that genes associated with the development of MPPGL include SDHA,SDHB,SDHC,SDHD,SDHAF2,FH,MDH2,VHL,IDH1,PDH1/2,SLC25A11,GOT2,DLST,CSDE1,MAML3,H3F3A,MERTK,PCDHGC3,and KIF1B,with SDHA,SDHB,SDHC,SDHD,and SDHAF2 being the common pathogenic genes.Potential mutations affect the clinical manifestations of MPPGL,such as malignant potential and genetic prediction,which can help to better understand the clinical course and treat accordingly.Genetic testing for pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas allows for early detection of genetic syndromes and facilitates close follow-up of high-risk patients.This article provides a review of the progress of research on susceptibility genes identified in MPPGL in recent years,with a view to providing a certain theoretical basis for further related research.

Bladder cancer （BCa） is the most common malignant tumor of the urinary system， and its incidence is increasing year by year. At present， for all patients with resectable non-metastatic muscle-invasive BCa， radical cystectomy + bilateral pelvic lymph node dissection is strongly recommended， but they still face the risk of recurrence， metastasis and death. In recent years， the proportion of patients with advanced and metastatic BCa is increasing among patients with newly diagnosed BCa. Although current treatment models are diverse， they often struggle to achieve significant efficacy due to their low effectiveness and adverse effects， resulting in low survival rates for patients with advanced and metastatic BCa. Therefore， the treatment of BCa still faces great challenges， and there is an urgent need to discover an effective new antitumor drug. With the improvement of medical standards， traditional Chinese medicine has shown great advantages in the treatment of BCa. Traditional Chinese medicine is mild and easy to accept， and can inhibit tumor progression through a multi-pathway， multi-way and multi-target manner， so as to exert its anticancer effect. Taraxaci Herba is a medicinal and food homologous plant， which has many biological activities， such as antibacterial， anti-inflammatory， anti-oxidation， anti-tumor， protecting liver and gallbladder， reducing blood sugar and enhancing immunity， and it has shown a clear anticancer effect in breast cancer， liver cancer， gastric cancer， tongue cancer and lung cancer. By reviewing previous studies worldwide， this article summarizes the mechanism of Taraxaci Herba extract in inducing autophagy and apoptosis， inhibiting cell migration and invasion， regulating cell cycle and proliferation， regulating cell metabolism， inhibiting tumor angiogenesis， combining the effects of chemotherapeutic drugs， and regulating the transduction of related signal pathways. On this basis， this study systematically elaborates on the potential mechanism of Taraxaci Herba against BCa， in order to provide a theoretical basis for the research and treatment of BCa.
