Low-level Ki-67 expression as an independent predictor of bladder tumour recurrence in patients with primary upper tract urothelial carcinoma after radical nephroureterectomy.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Cytokeratins (CKs) 19 and 20 have been used as targets for detecting cancer cells. We attempted to detect circulating cancer cells in patients with gastric cancer using a high-sensitivity reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay for CK transcripts. METHODS:RT-PCR for CK 19 and CK 20 wa...
