The elevation of urinary modified nucleosides levels in urine is found in patients with cancers. In the precent study, we have tested 616 urine samples randomly collected from non-malignant cases. Thirty-two percent (194/616) and 11% (68/616) had elevated levels of 1-methyladenosine and pseudouridin...
