Background & Aims: Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal carcinoma (HNPCC) is caused by a mutated mismatch repair (MMR) gene. The aim of our study was to determine the cumulative risk of developing cancer in a large series of MSH6 mutation carriers ...

Mutation in the Mismatch Repair Gene Msh6 Causes Cancer Susceptibility [PDF]
Mice carrying a null mutation in the mismatch repair gene Msh6 were generated by gene targeting. Cells that were homozygous for the mutation did not produce any detectable MSH6 protein, and extracts prepared from these cells were defective for repair of ...

Abstract Mucosal melanomas (MMs) are rare, aggressive cancers with poor outcomes and limited response to standard therapies. A significant knowledge gap exists regarding their genomic landscape and corresponding druggable targets. This study explores this issue through a multi‐omic analysis, including whole exome‐, RNA‐, and targeted sequencing, of ...

Contribution of Msh2 and Msh6 Subunits to the Asymmetric ATPase and DNA Mismatch Binding Activities of \u3cem\u3eSaccharomyces cerevisiae\u3c/em\u3e Msh2–Msh6 Mismatch Repair Protein [PDF]
Previous analyses of both Thermus aquaticus MutS homodimer and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Msh2–Msh6 heterodimer have revealed that the subunits in these protein complexes bind and hydrolyze ATP asymmetrically, emulating their asymmetric DNA binding ...

ABSTRACT Background Advances in molecular and cell biology have led to a paradigm shift in cancer management. We implemented next‐generation sequencing (NGS) at our community‐based academic cancer center over a decade ago. We sought to optimize the use of genomics and understand its impact in identifying actionable genomic alterations to determine ...

The Role of Noncoding RNA in MGMT‐Positive Glioblastoma: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive primary malignant tumor of the central nervous system and is characterized by rapid progression, frequent recurrence, and poor survival outcomes. The current standard of care, comprising maximal safe surgical resection followed by radiotherapy with concomitant and adjuvant temozolomide (TMZ), has ...

Mutating lysine 336 in Msh6 does not appear to affect DNA mismatch repair in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
Defects in the DNA mismatch repair process results in the accumulation of mutations and disease. Mutations in MSH6 and MSH2, encoding for the subunits of the MutSα complex, are often responsible for Constitutional Mismatch Repair Deficiency (CMMRD) and ...

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) is transforming Huntington's disease research through allele‐selective huntingtin (HTT) targeting, transcriptional and RNA suppression, and advanced disease modelling. Progress towards precision therapy depends on safe central nervous system (CNS) delivery, reduced off‐target and immune ...

Estradiol Promotes Tumor Progression in ERα‐Low Endometrial Cancer via the GPER/SphK1 Pathway
Estradiol (E2) promotes tumor progression in ERα‐low endometrial cancer through the GPER/SphK1/ERK1/2 signaling axis. E2 binding to GPER activates SphK1 and downstream ERK1/2, upregulating Cyclin D1, Cyclin E1, and MMP‐9 to drive cell proliferation, migration, and invasion.

Atypical HNPCC owing to MSH6 germline mutations: analysis of a large Dutch pedigree [PDF]
Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is the most common genetic susceptibility syndrome for colorectal cancer. HNPCC is most frequently caused by germline mutations in the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes MSH2 and MLH1 ...
