Microsatellite Instability in Malignant Melanoma [PDF]

Cancer Genetics and Cytogenetics, 1998
Defective mismatch repair has been detected in human colorectal and endometrial carcinomas which exhibit microsatellite instability (MIN). The purpose of this study was to search for MIN in melanoma. Paraffin-embedded neoplastic and non-neoplastic control cells were obtained from 20 untreated individuals with cutaneous malignant melanoma.

Mismatch Repair Deficiency and Microsatellite Instability

Encyclopedia, 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.

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

Gut 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

JTO 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 ...

Microsatellite instability in endometrial polyps [PDF]

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 2010
To investigate the prevalence of microsatellite instability (MSI) in endometrial polyps and to evaluate whether there are clinical and histopathological parameters associated with this kind of instability.Between September 2008 and April 2009, endometrial polyps were collected from 109 patients. MSI was evaluated using the NCI recommended markers BAT25,

Instability of a dinucleotide repeat in the 3′‐untranslated region (UTR) of the microsomal prostaglandin E synthase‐1 (mPGES‐1) gene in microsatellite instability‐high (MSI‐H) colorectal carcinoma

Molecular Oncology, 2015
DNA mismatch‐repair gene mutations, with consequent loss of functional protein expression, result in microsatellite instability (MSI). Microsatellite sequences are found in coding regions and in regulatory regions of genes (i.e., 5′‐UTRs and 3′‐UTRs). In

High incidence of microsatellite instability and loss of heterozygosity in three loci in breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy: a prospective study

BMC Cancer, 2012
Background The aim of the study was to evaluate potential chemotherapy-induced microsatellite instability, loss of heterozygosity, loss of expression in mismatch repair proteins and associations with clinical findings in breast cancer patients ...

Profiling neoadjuvant therapy response in rectal cancer using meta‐analysis of publicly available transcriptomic RNA‐seq datasets

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study integrates publicly available transcriptomic datasets to identify molecular signatures associated with response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in locally advanced rectal cancer. By analyzing a combination of multiple cohorts with bioinformatics approaches, we reveal biological pathways and immune‐related features that may improve ...

p190A/ARHGAP35 and p190B/ARHGAP5 proteins in endometrial cancer: a novel cancer‐relevant paralog interplay

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.
