Patients with genetic variants that increase skin cancer risk are recommended to undergo regular dermatology screenings per National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines, but compliance is uncertain. In a retrospective study of 230 patients with such variants, compliance with screening visits significantly improved after visiting a Hereditary Cancer

Endometrial cancer and microsatellite instability status
Microsatellite instability (MSI) is an important factor in the development of various cancers as an identifier of a defective DNA mismatch repair system.

ABSTRACT Colorectal cancer (CRC) has raised considerable health concerns worldwide, with increasing incidence rates, specifically among younger populations. Despite remarkable progress in diagnosing and treating various diseases, the genetic basis of CRC remains only partially understood.

Data‐Independent Acquisition Mass Spectrometry in Tumor Classification and Cancer Biomarker Research
Abstract Cancer treatment is far from optimal also because current classification systems do not reflect the complex molecular status of the tumor and its phenotype in sufficient detail. To construct molecular tumor classifiers, omics tools provide complex molecular data reflecting many aspects from genotype to phenotype.

Colorectal cancer carcinogenesis: a review of mechanisms
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cancer in women and the third most common in men globally. CRC arises from one or a combination of chromosomal instability, CpG island methylator phenotype, and microsatellite instability.

Microsatellite Instability and Colorectal Cancer
Context.—About 15% of colorectal cancers are characterized by genomic microsatellite instability, and of these, about 1 in 5 (2%–4% overall) are due to Lynch syndrome, a dominantly inherited condition predisposing the patient to cancers of multiple organ systems, including the gastrointestinal tract.

ABSTRACT African Americans have the highest colorectal cancer (CRC) mortality rates in the United States. We performed the first genome‐wide association study (GWAS) of overall and CRC‐specific mortality among African Americans with incident CRC to identify genetic contributors to CRC outcomes.

Background. In gastric carcinogenesis, changes of DNA methylation appear to be an early molecular event, and the genome-wide methylation state is closely correlated with the level of long interspersed nucleotide element-1 (LINE-1) methylation.
