A Sub-Type of Familial Pancreatic Cancer: Evidence and Implications of Loss-of-Function Polymorphisms in Indoleamine-2,3-Dioxygenase-2. [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Variation in an individual\u27s genetic status can impact the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma; however, the majority of familial pancreatic cancers (FPC) cannot yet be attributed to a specific inherited mutation.

Integrin β6 expression in colorectal cancer cells promotes liver metastasis through enhanced adhesion to endothelial fibronectin

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 157, Issue 7, Page 1481-1495, 1 October 2025.
What's New? Integrins are critical mediators of cell adhesion and migration and have been implicated in cancer progression. Here, the authors show that endothelial cells in target organs of colorectal cancer metastasis express fibronectin, and that colorectal cancer tumour cells can bind fibronectin through integrin β6. This interaction is resistant to

Associations of the Colon Tissue Microbiome and Circulating Bile Acids With Colorectal Adenoma Among Average‐Risk Women

Cancer Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 18, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective The gut microbiome and bile acids (BAs) likely influence colorectal cancer (CRC) development and disparities. We conducted a nested case–control study of the associations of the colon tissue microbiome and circulating BAs with colorectal adenoma prevalence in the previously conducted multi‐center Colorectal Neoplasia Screening with ...

Investigating the Link between Lynch Syndrome and Breast Cancer

European Journal of Breast Health, 2020
Objective:Lynch syndrome is an inherited genetic disorder associated with a predisposition to early-onset colorectal and endometrial cancers, but breast cancer risk in these patients is debated. The aim of this study is to evaluate breast cancer rates in

Whole-exome sequencing identified a novel mutation of MLH1 in an extended family with lynch syndrome

Genes and Diseases, 2020
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer or Lynch syndrome is autosomal dominant cancer predisposition syndrome characterized by early onset of colorectal cancer and neoplasia in other organs. This condition typically caused by germline mutations in the

N‐terminus of hMLH1 confers interaction of hMutLα and hMutLβ with hMutSα [PDF]

, 2006
Mismatch repair is a highly conserved system that ensures replication fidelity by repairing mispairs after DNA synthesis. In humans, the two protein heterodimers hMutSα (hMSH2‐hMSH6) and hMutLα (hMLH1‐hPMS2) constitute the centre of the repair reaction ...
