What are the causative factors of bladder cancer

The characteristics of bladder cancer are that it is generally caused by the combined effects of multiple factors, which are divided into multiple steps. Among the many factors of bladder cancer, we need to focus on smoking and occupational factors. Smoking is not a big deal. The occupations that cause bladder cancer refer to people who have long-term contact with aromatic amines. The following is an introduction to the pathogenic factors of bladder cancer:

1. Long-term exposure to aromatics, such as dyes, leather, rubber, and painters, can lead to a higher incidence of bladder tumors. Statistics have shown that the incidence of bladder cancer among workers exposed to aniline is 30 times higher than that of the general population. This is one of the causes of bladder cancer.

2. Smoking is also a cause of bladder cancer. Recent studies have shown that the metabolism of tryptophan, a carcinogen in the urine of smokers, increases by 50%. When smoking stops, tryptophan levels gradually return to normal.

3. The cause of bladder cancer is related to abnormal tryptophan metabolism in the body. Abnormal tryptophan metabolism may directly affect the synthesis of RNA and DNA in cells, thus leading to the occurrence of bladder cancer.

4. Long-term stimulation of the bladder mucosa. Long-term chronic infection and chronic stimulation of bladder stones can induce bladder tumors.

In addition to the above causes, you should also pay attention to some habits in life and the hygiene of drinking water. After long-term research, it was found that patients with bladder cancer also have genetic characteristics. The probability of direct relatives of bladder cancer developing bladder cancer is more than 2 times higher than that of the normal population.
