Microsatellite Instability: Diagnosis, Heterogeneity, Discordance, and Clinical Impact in Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesCancers, 2019
Tumor DNA mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency testing is important to the identification of Lynch syndrome and decision making regarding adjuvant chemotherapy in stage II colorectal cancer (CRC) and has become an indispensable test in metastatic tumors due ...

High prevalence of NTRK fusions in sporadic dMMR/MSI mCRC RAS/RAF wild-type: an opportunity for a post-immune checkpoint inhibitors progression rescue strategy

open access: yesESMO Gastrointestinal Oncology
Background: Currently, mismatch repair deficient/microsatellite instable (dMMR/MSI) status constitutes a validated predictive marker of response to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).

Detectability of colorectal neoplasia with fluorine-18-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography and computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The purpose of this study was to analyze the detectability of colorectal neoplasia with fluorine-18-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT). Data for a total of 492 patients who had undergone both PET/CT

Microsatellite Instability as a Biomarker for PD-1 Blockade

open access: yesClinical Cancer Research, 2016
Initial results by Le and colleagues, which were published in the June 25, 2015 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, report significant responses of cancers with microsatellite instability (MSI) to anti–PD-1 inhibitors in patients who failed ...

Microsatellite instability in colorectal cancer

open access: yesBritish Journal of Surgery, 2006
Abstract Background Microsatellite instability (MSI) causes hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), and occurs in about 15 per cent of sporadic colorectal cancers. Although the basic mechanisms are not clear, there is increased understanding of the clinicopathological consequences of MSI.

Colorectal cancer carcinogenesis: a review of mechanisms

open access: yesCancer Biology & Medicine, 2016
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cancer in women and the third most common in men globally. CRC arises from one or a combination of chromosomal instability, CpG island methylator phenotype, and microsatellite instability.

Microsatellite instability and defects in mismatch repair proteins: a new aetiology for Sertoli cell‐only syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Microsatellite instability is characteristic of certain types of cancer, and is present in rodents lacking specific DNA mismatch repair proteins. These azoospermic mice exhibit spermatogenic defects similar to some human testicular failure patients ...

Meta‐analysis of microsatellite instability in relation to clinicopathological characteristics and overall survival in gastric cancer

open access: yesBritish Journal of Surgery, 2018
Several associations between microsatellite instability (MSI) and other clinicopathological factors have been reported in gastric cancer, but the results have been ambiguous.
