Attaching and effacing Escherichia coli downregulate DNA mismatch repair protein in vitro and are associated with colorectal adenocarcinomas in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Mucosa-associated Escherichia coli are frequently found in the colonic mucosa of patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma, but rarely in healthy controls. Chronic mucosal E. coli infection has therefore been linked to colonic tumourigenesis. E.

Diagnostic challenges in a CMMRD patient with a novel mutation in the PMS2 gene: a case report

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2021
Background Constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) is a rare autosomal recessive condition, which is caused by biallelic mutations in mismatch repair genes: MSH2, MLH1, MSH6, and PMS2.

Genotypic and Phenotypic Characteristics of Hereditary Colorectal Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Coloproctology, 2021
The genomic causes and clinical manifestations of hereditary colorectal cancer (HCRC) might be stratified into 2 groups, namely, familial (FCRC) and a limited sense of HCRC, respectively. Otherwise, FCRC is canonically classified into 2 major categories;

DNA Repair Syndromes and Cancer: Insights Into Genetics and Phenotype Patterns

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2020
DNA damage response is essential to human physiology. A broad spectrum of pathologies are displayed by individuals carrying monoallelic or biallelic loss-of-function mutations in DNA damage repair genes. DNA repair syndromes with biallelic disturbance of
