Furthermore, cell lines derived from bladder cancers of lower stage and grade expressed FGFR3 IIIb as their major transcript, while cells derived from high grade tumors exhibit a switch to favour FGFR3 IIIc expression, suggesting that FGFR3 IIIb may have tumor-restrictive properties in bladder cancer [157]. The gene discussed is FGFR3; the disease is urinary bladder carcinoma.
