Instability in Pentanucleotide Markers in a Subset of Microsatellite Instability-High Colorectal Cancer [PDF]
Current OncologyMicrosatellite instability (MSI) testing is frequently used to screen patients for the early detection of Lynch syndrome, the most common hereditary colorectal cancer syndrome. MSI testing compares microsatellite repeat lengths in tumor DNA with those in

Microsatellite instability in sarcomas [PDF]
Annals of Surgical Oncology, 1998 Microsatellite instability (MIN) has been studied in a variety of carcinomas and gynecologic sarcomas, but never in musculoskeletal sarcomas.We evaluated 16 skeletal and soft tissue sarcomas at nine genetic loci from chromosomal regions 1q, 5q, 7q, 12p, 13q, 17p, 19q, and two at 11p--all potential regions of interest regarding musculoskeletal sarcomas ...

Microsatellite Instability in Keratoacanthoma [PDF]
Cancer, 1995 Tumors from patients with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) and from a subset of patients with the related Muir-Torre syndrome (MTS) exhibit a novel type of genomic instability known as microsatellite instability (MIN). In general, this form of genomic instability results from mutations that inactivate DNA mismatch repair genes.

IJU Case Reports, 2022 Introduction Prostate cancer with a microsatellite instability‐high or mismatch repair‐deficient status is not common. Few reports of the response to pembrolizumab in metastatic castration‐resistant prostate cancer in a real‐world setting have been ...

Microsatellite instability-high gastric cancer patients may benefit from adjuvant radiotherapy
Libri Oncologici, 2023 Gastric cancer remains one of the deadliest types of cancer despite the improvements in therapy regimens. The knowledge about specific molecular and histopathologic features of gastric tumors leads toward targeted therapy protocols.

Microsatellite instability in colorectal cancer [PDF]
Radiology and Oncology, 2011 Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer in the world. In 75% CRC develops sporadically, in 25% hereditary or as a consequence of inflammatory bowel disease. CRC carcinogenesis develops over many years. The cause of CRC in 85% is chromosomal instability (CIN) and in 15% microsatellite instability (MSI-H), where hereditary nonpolyposis ...

Biology Direct, 2022 Background Historically, the molecular classification of colorectal cancer (CRC) was based on the global genomic status, which identified microsatellite instability in mismatch repair (MMR) deficient CRC, and chromosomal instability in MMR proficient CRC.

Microsatellite instability states serve as predictive biomarkers for tumors chemotherapy sensitivity
iScience, 2023 Summary: There is an urgent need for markers to predict the efficacy of different chemotherapy drugs. Herein, we examined whether microsatellite instability (MSI) status can predict tumor multidrug sensitivity and explored the underlying mechanisms.
