Znaczenie mechanizmu naprawy DNA błędnie sparowanych zasad azotowych (MMR) w raku piersi
Background: Microsatellite instability (MSI) is due to defective DNA mismatch repair. Defects in DNA mismatch-repair (MMR) genes lead to replication errors revealed as instability in microsatellite markers.

Characterizing Microsatellite Instability and Chromosome Instability in Interval Colorectal Cancers
There are a substantial portion of colorectal cancers (CRCs), termed interval CRCs (I-CRCs), that are diagnosed shortly after a negative colonoscopy (i.e., no detectable polyps or CRC) and before recommended follow-up screening.

In this retrospective cohort of 3487 patients with CRC, history of CCY was associated with significantly worse prognosis in patients with proximal CRC but not in those with distal CRC. This differential prognostic impact showed a statistically significant interaction between tumor location and history of CCY and remained robust after PSM.

Background Microsatellite instability in colon cancer implies favorable therapeutic outcomes after checkpoint blockade immunotherapy. However, the molecular nature of microsatellite instability is not well elucidated.Methods We examined the immune ...

Abstract Genetic tumor risk syndromes (genturis) contribute substantially to the overall cancer burden and provide opportunities for early detection, prevention, and individualized treatment. Yet, many affected individuals remain undiagnosed due to restrictive testing criteria and challenges in variant interpretation.

Living at genetic risk: The patient experience of Lynch syndrome
Abstract Lynch syndrome is a germline cancer predisposition syndrome caused by a variant in one of four genes. Lynch syndrome places individuals at significantly higher risk for a range of cancers, especially colorectal and endometrial. Depending on which gene is affected, the risk of ovarian, gastric, small bowel, pancreatic, biliary urothelial, brain,

What's New? Colorectal neuroendocrine carcinoma (CR‐NEC) is a rare digestive neuroendocrine neoplasm that frequently exhibits an adenocarcinoma component. Nonetheless, the underlying biology of CR‐NEC remains poorly understood. This study examined molecular and clinical features and palliative chemotherapy outcomes of metastatic CR‐NEC, with comparison

Abstract Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common hereditary colorectal cancer syndrome, caused by a germline pathogenic variant in one of the mismatch repair (MMR) genes. Among these, MSH6‐associated LS represents a distinct subtype with unique molecular and clinical characteristics.

What's New? A substantial proportion of patients with microsatellite‐unstable gastrointestinal adenocarcinomas do not benefit from immunotherapy. This study demonstrates that microsatellite instability can be reliably detected in plasma‐derived extracellular vesicle DNA from patients with microsatellite‐unstable gastrointestinal cancers.
