Signalling cell cycle arrest and cell death through the MMR System [PDF]
Loss of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) in mammalian cells, as well as having a causative role in cancer, has been linked to resistance to certain DNA damaging agents including clinically important cytotoxic chemotherapeutics.

In patients treated with atezolizumab as a part of the MyPathway (NCT02091141) trial, pre‐treatment ctDNA tumor fraction at high levels was associated with poor outcomes (radiographic response, progression‐free survival, and overall survival) but better sensitivity for blood tumor mutational burden (bTMB).

Microsatellite instability (MSI, EMAST) in the pathogenesis of follicular lymphoma
Background. Genetic instability, an important phenomenon involved in oncogenic transformation and tumor progression, is associated with the insufficiency of the multicomponent DNA repair complex, in particular, the nucleotide mismatch repair (MMR) system.

3 '-UTR poly(T/U) repeat of EWSR1 is altered in microsatellite unstable colorectal cancer with nearly perfect sensitivity [PDF]
Approximately 15 % of colorectal cancers exhibit instability of short nucleotide repeat regions, microsatellites. These tumors display a unique clinicopathologic profile and the microsatellite instability status is increasingly used to guide clinical ...

Microsatellite instability in ovarian neoplasms [PDF]
Microsatellite instability has been observed in a variety of sporadic malignancies, but its existence in sporadic ovarian cancer has been the subject of conflicting reports. We have performed a polymerase chain reaction-based microsatellite analysis of DNAs extracted from the neoplastic and non-neoplastic tissues of 41 ovarian cancer patients.

This study identifies nuclear YB‐1 S102 phosphorylation as a marker associated with KRAS and FBXW7 mutations in colorectal cancer. Mutated KRAS correlates specifically with nuclear, not cytoplasmic, S102 YB‐1. These findings provide the first ex vivo evidence of this link in CRC and suggest future studies should assess the prognostic and therapeutic ...

Detection of mutator phenotype in Brazilian patients with acute and chronic myeloid leukemia
The multisteps of tumorigenesis involve the classic chromosomal instability and the mutator phenotype pathways featured by a predisposition to acquire mutations in tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes.

Background:The polymorphic variants at codon 72 of the p53 gene, encoding either proline or arginine at residue 72,produce marked change in the structure of p53.From the evidence that the DNAmismatch repair system and p53 interact to maintain genomic ...

The structurally complex MYCL1 microsatellite marker is often used to determine microsatellite instability in colorectal cancers but the allelic variation of this marker has remained largely uncharacterized in both populations and in cancers.
