Previous work in this laboratory has established that a rat liver nuclear phosphoprotein (B2:Mr 68,000, pI 6.5-8.2) is associated with actively transcribed nucleosomes, as demonstrated by its preferential release after mild treatment with micrococcal nuclease. In the present report we provide further immunological evidence (‘Western Blot’ analysis, solid-phase radioimmunoassay and indirect immunofluorescence) that in addition establishes the presence of this phosphoprotein in the nuclear-matrix protein fraction. This paradoxical localization suggests that this phosphoprotein may function in two separate and distinct roles within the realm of nuclear organization.

Bladder cancer (BC) is the most important tumor problem of urologic cancer. Therefore, noninvasive urinary biomarkers were used for diagnosis of BC. However, the new biomarkers failed to reach higher accuracy. The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic efficacy of nuclear matrix protein-22 (NMP- 22), nuclear matrix protein-52 (NMP-52), urinary cytology and to investigate combinations of urine NMP-52 with urinary cytology as noninvasive biomarkers to increase diagnostic performance of bladder cancer at different grades and stages. Overall, there were 156 subjects (62 BC, 54 cystitis patients and 40 healthy volunteers). The NMP-22 and NMP-52 were quantified in urine samples by ELISA. The urinary cytology is used by some physicians routinely for diagnosis of BC. The sensitivity and specificity for NMP-52 were 94% and 82%, for NMP-22 69% and 80.8% and for cytology 56% and 94.6% respectively and also, both urinary NMP-22 and NMP-52 have extremely significant relation (p<0.0001) to BC vs. healthy individuals and cystitis patients. Moreover, the combination of NMP- 52 with urinary cytology could predict all BC stages and grade with 95.6% sensitivity and 94.3% specificity. In conclusion, NMP-52 and urinary cytology in combination improve diagnostic performance for BC detection in different pathological types.
