Objective To assess the role of E-cadherin (CDH1) promoter methylation in bladder carcinogenesis by meta-analysis. Methods The relevant database were searched by the retrieval strategy of Cochrane network. All included studies were collected following data:the first author’s surname, publication year of article, country, language of publication, design of study, sample size, ethnicity, histological subtypes, methylation detection method and genotype frequencies etc. This meta-analysis was performed using the STATA 12.0 software. The crude odds ratio (OR) with 95%confidence interval (CI) was calculated. Results Ten case-control studies were included in this meta-analysis. The methylation frequency of CDH1 was detected in 620 bladder cancer tissues and 341 normal or cancerous tissues. Results showed that the methylation frequency of CDH1 was significantly higher in bladder cancer tissue than that of normal or cancerous tissue (OR=3.09, 95%CI:1.13~8.50, P=0.029). Furthermore, the ethnicity-stratified analysis revealed that the methylation frequency of CDH1 was significantly higher in bladder cancer tissue of Asian populations than that of normal or cancerous tissue (OR=3.85, 95%CI:1.46~10.14, P=0.006), but no such association was found in Caucasian populations(OR=2.22, 95%CI:0.38-12.91, P=0.375). The subgroup analysis based on the detection methods revealed that there was a statistically significant difference in the methylation frequency of CDH1 between bladder cancer tissue and adjacent tissues and normal tissues under the MSP subgroup (P<0.001), while such association was not observed under the Q-MSP subgroup (P=0.818). Conclusion Pro?moter methylation of CDH1 gene may be involved in the occurrence and development of bladder cancer, which may serve as a biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis of bladder cancer.

Objective To study the Janus Kinase 2 V617F (JAK2V617F) point mutation in bcr-abl-negative myeloproliferative disorders (MPD) and explore its clinical significances. Methods Genomic DNA was isolated from bone marrow or peripheral-blood granulocytes. Allelespecific-polymerase chain reactions (AS-PCR), restriction enzyme digestion in combination with PCR product sequencing were performed to detect the mutation in genomic DNA. 110 patients were detected, including 41 with bcr-ablnegative MPD, 25 with bcr-abl-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), and 44 with acute leukemia.Results JAK2V617F was presented in 11 cases(91.7 %) of 12 polycythemia vera (PV), 8 cases(53.3 %) of 15 essential thrombocythemia(ET), 4 cases (57.1%) of 7 idiopathic myelofibrosis (IMF), while in other patients including 7 hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES), 25 bcr-abl-positive CML, 24 acute myelocytic leukemia (AML), 18 acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL), and 2 acute mixed lineage leukemia, JAK2V617F can not be detected. All positive samples and 10 negative samples identified by AS-PCR and restriction enzyme digestion were confirmed further by DNA sequencing. Conclusion The frequency of JAK2V617F mutation was more than 90 % among patients with PV, more than 50 % among patients with ET and IMF. The detection of JAK2V617F mutation will be of great significanees in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of MPD. This mutation can be a molecular marker of MPD and might be a treatment target in the future.
