No mutations of FGFR3 in normal urothelium in the vicinity of urothelial carcinoma of the bladder harbouring activating FGFR3 mutations in patients with bladder cancer
International Journal of Cancer, 07/23/09

Otto W et al. – The data suggest that mutations in the FGFR3 gene are not the earliest genetic alterations in bladder carcinogenesis and are associated with a hyperproliferative (hyperplastic) phenotype in the urothelium. Chromosomal alterations like deletions on chromosome 9q or aberrant promoter hypermethylation could play more important roles in early urothelial transformation than mutational FGFR3 activation
