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 ...

European guidelines from the EHTG and ESCP for Lynch syndrome: an updated third edition of the Mallorca guidelines based on gene and gender

open access: yesBJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
Recommendations for clinical and molecular identification of LS, surgical and endoscopic management of LS‐associated colorectal cancer and preventive measures for cancer were produced. The emphasis was on surgical and gastroenterological aspects of the cancer spectrum.

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.

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

Uterine carcinosarcoma with microsatellite instability - does immunotherapy modify the therapeutic scenario? A case report and literature review

open access: yes, 2023
Carcinosarcomas were reclassified by World Health Organization as high-grade uterine carcinomas in 2014. Due to its rare histology, comprising only 5% of uterine carcinomas, there is a small representation of this tumor in studies that evaluate ...

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).

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
