description The urological malignancies are among the most important neoplastic diseases imposing a significant burden on health care systems globally. The current therapeutic measures for these cancers have unsatisfactory results, and comprehensive knowledge of pathways involved in carcinogenesis and progression of these cancers is of utmost importance.
