A high Derlin-1 staining level was significantly correlated with the pathological stage (p = 0.019), the status of distant metastasis (p = 0.019), bladder recurrence (p = 0.012), tumor-related mortality (p = 0.001) and local recurrence (p = 0.002) (Table 1). This evidence concerns the gene DERL1 and neoplasm.
