Evaluation of Mutation Risk Using Patient‐Derived Organoids in Patients With Lynch Syndrome
ABSTRACT Lynch syndrome (LS) is a hereditary cancer predisposition syndrome caused by germline mutation of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes, most notably associated with colorectal cancer. Although LS patients face high risk of CRC, risk can vary even among those with the same pathogenic MMR germline mutations. We suggest a functional assay platform for
