Durable response to pembrolizumab in microsatellite instability‐high advanced adrenocortical carcinoma

open access: yesIJU Case Reports, 2023
Introduction Advanced adrenocortical carcinoma has a poor prognosis and is treated with chemotherapy that includes mitotane with etoposide, doxorubicin, and cisplatin as first‐line therapy.

Mismatch repair deficiency/microsatellite instability-high as a predictor for anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy efficacy

open access: yesJournal of Hematology & Oncology, 2019
Immunotherapies have led to substantial changes in cancer treatment and have been a persistently popular topic in cancer research because they tremendously improve the efficacy of treatment and survival of individuals with various cancer types.

Relationship of microsatellite instability to mismatch repair deficiency in malignant tumors of dogs

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2022
Background Microsatellite instability (MSI) is a type of genomic instability caused by mismatch repair deficiency (dMMR) in tumors. Studies on dMMR/MSI are limited, and the relationship between dMMR and MSI is unknown in tumors of dogs.

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).

Mismatch Repair Deficiency and Microsatellite Instability

open access: yesEncyclopedia, 2022
Mismatch repair deficiency (MMRd) is caused by the biallelic inactivation of an MMR gene, which can be attributed either to an inherited or an acquired pathway.

A molecular portrait of microsatellite instability across multiple cancers

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Some cancers with DNA mismatch repair deficiency display microsatellite instability. Here the authors analyse twenty three cancer types at the exome and whole-genome level, and identify loci with recurrent microsatellite instability that could be used to

Fusobacterium nucleatum infection correlates with two types of microsatellite alterations in colorectal cancer and triggers DNA damage

open access: yesGut Pathogens, 2020
Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) is frequently found in colorectal cancers (CRCs). High loads of Fn DNA are detected in CRC tissues with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H), or with the CpG island hypermethylation phenotype (CIMP).

Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Lung With Microsatellite Instability in a Patient With Lynch Syndrome: A Case Report

open access: yesJTO Clinical and Research Reports
Lynch syndrome is the most common autosomal dominant inherited cancer predisposing syndrome, due to mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes. The key feature of cancers in Lynch syndrome is microsatellite instability and a high risk of developing mainly ...

Mitochondrial DNA alteration in primary and metastatic colorectal cancer: Different frequency and association with selected clinicopathological and molecular markers

open access: yesTumor Biology, 2017
This study attempts to determine whether primary tumor tissue could reliably represent metastatic colorectal cancer in therapy-guiding analysis of mitochondrial microsatellite instability.

TREX1, a predator for treating MSI‐H tumors?

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Immunotherapy benefits many patients; yet, some with MSI‐H tumors remain unresponsive despite their high immunogenicity. Xu et al. reveal that TREX1 enables immune evasion by degrading cytosolic DNA and suppressing cGAS–STING–IFN‐I signaling. TREX1 loss restores DNA sensing, increases CD8+ T and NK cell infiltration, and boosts antitumor immunity ...
