Znaczenie mechanizmu naprawy DNA błędnie sparowanych zasad azotowych (MMR) w raku piersi

Menopause Review, 2010
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.

Improving genetic diagnosis of hereditary tumor syndromes: From expanded gene panels to functional genomics

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
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

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
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,

Characterizing Microsatellite Instability and Chromosome Instability in Interval Colorectal Cancers

Neoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2018
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.

Tumor-draining lymph nodes shape the tumor microenvironment through enrichment of tumor-reactive effector-exhausted CD8+ T cells

Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy
Tumor-draining lymph nodes are central to anti-tumor immunity and influence the response to immunotherapy. Colorectal cancers with microsatellite instability and microsatellite stability differ substantially in tumor biology, prognosis and sensitivity to

A multilevel perspective on MSH6‐associated Lynch syndrome: Integrating molecular, biological, and clinical insights

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
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.

Analysis of the molecular nature associated with microsatellite status in colon cancer identifies clinical implications for immunotherapy

Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2020
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 ...

Artificial Intelligence in Colonoscopy Surveillance for Lynch Syndrome: Emerging Evidence, Lessons Learned From Average‐Risk Populations, and Future Directions

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common hereditary colorectal cancer (CRC) syndrome and is characterized by an accelerated adenoma‐carcinoma sequence, a relatively higher prevalence of flat and subtle CRC precursor lesions, and exceptionally high adenoma miss rates despite intensive colonoscopy surveillance.

Colorectal Cancer Screening in Hereditary and Familial High‐Risk Populations: Best Practices and Future Directions

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a leading cause of cancer‐related morbidity and mortality worldwide yet is largely preventable through effective screening and surveillance. While most CRC cases are sporadic, a substantial proportion occur in individuals at increased risk due to hereditary cancer syndromes or family history who require tailored

Impact of Molecular Alterations on Survival in Biliary Tract Cancers: A Retrospective Belgian Cohort Study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biliary tract cancers (BTCs) are aggressive malignancies associated with a poor prognosis. Although molecular profiling is recommended to guide therapeutic decision‐making, real‐practice data on the prevalence and prognostic significance of genomic alterations in European BTC cohorts remain limited.
