1. A method for detecting bladder cancer, comprising:
measuring an expression level of miR-1185-1-3p in a sample from a human subject;
determining that the level of miR-1185-1-3p in the sample from the human subject is increased in comparison to a level of miR-1185-1-3p in a control sample from a human subject without bladder cancer;
determining that the human subject has bladder cancer based on the increased expression level of miR-1185-1-3p; and
treating the human subject for the bladder cancer;
wherein the sample is blood, serum, or plasma; and
wherein the treating comprises surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or a combination thereof.
