Abstract:

In recent years, chemoresistance has seriously restricted the therapeutic effect of bladder cancer, and the recurrence rate and metastasis rate remain high. Therefore, it is very important to reverse the resistance of bladder cancer to chemotherapy, and find more effective target of chemosensitizion and explore its mechanism. Transurethral resection of bladder tumors is commonly used in treatment of bladder cancer currently, and adjuvant chemotherapy drugs are utilized after operation. The most chemotherapy drugs used in bladder cancer include cisplatin, gemcitabine, adriamycin and epirubicin. At present, the target genes and molecules for enhancing chemosensitivity of these drugs display various expression states in bladder cancer cells, and the mechanisms for enhancing chemosensitivity through these targets are also different. In this paper, we will review the research progress of target and mechanism of chemosensitizing drugs for bladder cancer, and explore new ideas for chemosensitizion of bladder cancer.

Key words: bladder cancer, drug resistance, chemotherapy drugs, chemotherapy sensitization, target
