The present invention provides a novel cancer marker that is useful in the diagnosis of urothelial cancer. The present invention uses ubiquilin 2 as a cancer marker for urothelial cancer (renal pelvis cancer, ureteral cancer, and bladder cancer). Detection of ubiquilin 2 in a urine sample allows easy and accurate diagnosis of a possibility of urothelial cancer. The present invention is also applicable to the diagnosis of squamous cancer (esophageal cancer, cervical cancer, etc.). |
