Genetic Features of Metachronous Esophageal Cancer Developed in Hodgkin's Lymphoma or Breast Cancer Long-Term Survivors: An Exploratory Study. [PDF]
Background Development of novel therapeutic drugs and regimens for cancer treatment has led to improvements in patient long-term survival. This success has, however, been accompanied by the increased occurrence of second primary cancers.

COLORECTAL CANCER: HISTOPATHOLOGICAL PROFILE AND PREVALENCE OF DNA REPAIR SYSTEM DEFICIENCY IN PATIENTS SUBMITTED TO SURGICAL TREATMENT IN A UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Part of colorectal cancer cases occurs due to modifications in the DNA mismatch repair system, which are responsible for microsatellite instability. This alteration results in an unconventional phenotypic pattern of colorectal cancer.

Clinical and morphological portrait of tumors with microsatellite instability
Background. Microsatellites are short tandem nucleotide repeats, the change in length of which plays a key roles in the pathogenesis of various malignant neoplasms. This change is called microsatellite instability.

Microsatellite instability in colorectal cancer [PDF]
AbstractApproximately 20 percent of right‐sided colon cancers and 5 percent of left‐sided colon and rectal cancers have a deficient DNA mismatch repair system. This results in the widespread accumulation of mutations to nucleotide repeats, some of which occur within the coding regions of cancer‐related genes such as TGFβRII and BAX.

Microsatellite Instability in Keratoacanthoma [PDF]
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.

Microsatellite instability in sarcomas [PDF]
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-high gastric cancer patients may benefit from adjuvant radiotherapy
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]
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 ...
