2. Smoking. It is also a reason to increase the incidence of bladder cancer. Recent studies have shown that the metabolism of tryptophan in the urine of smokers increases by 50%. When smoking stops, the level of tryptophan returns to normal. Smoking is a common cause of bladder cancer.

3. Abnormal metabolism of tryptophan: abnormal metabolism of tryptophan can produce some metabolites, such as 3-hydroxy-2-aminoacetophenone and 3-hydroxy-o-aminobenzoic acid, which can directly affect the synthesis of RNA and DNA in cells. These metabolites are excreted into the bladder through the action of the liver, and are carcinogenic after the action of β - glucuronidase.
