Mismatch repair-deficient crypt foci in Lynch syndrome--molecular alterations and association with clinical parameters. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Lynch syndrome is caused by germline mutations of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes, most frequently MLH1 and MSH2. Recently, MMR-deficient crypt foci (MMR-DCF) have been identified as a novel lesion which occurs at high frequency in the intestinal mucosa ...

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.

Analysis of microsatellite instability in medulloblastoma [PDF]

open access: yesNeuro-Oncology, 2009
Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor in children. The presence of microsatellite instability (MSI) in brain tumors, particularly medulloblastomas, has not been properly addressed. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role of MSI in medulloblastoma carcinogenesis. MSI status was determined in 36 patients using a pentaplex
