Assessing the impact of MSH3 and MSH6 polymorphisms on lung cancer risk in North Indian patients undergoing platinum chemotherapy through molecular dynamics simulation

open access: yesScientific Reports
The present study investigated the relationship between MSH3 and MSH6 genes in lung cancer patients. Genotyping of lung cancer patients and healthy controls was performed. Odds ratio values were calculated and survival analysis performed.

A case of Turcot’s syndrome type 1 with loss of immunoexpression of MSH6 in colon cancer and liver metastasis due to secondary somatic mutation in coding mononucleotide (C)8 tract: a case report

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2020
Background Lynch syndrome (LS), which is known as a hereditary cancer syndrome, is distinguished by microsatellite instability, represented by the altered number of repetitive sequences in the coding and/or non-coding region. Immunohistochemical staining

GenProb‐PCSM: A Simplified Weighted Germline Score for Prostate Cancer‐Specific Mortality

open access: yesThe Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background We previously developed a tier‐based germline classification using the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN)‐recommended DNA damage repair (DDR) genes and KLK3 I179T to predict prostate cancer (PCa)‐specific mortality (PCSM).

Clinical and Molecular Characterization of Brazilian Patients Suspected to Have Lynch Syndrome.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Lynch syndrome (LS) accounts for 3-5% of all colorectal cancers (CRC) and is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. This syndrome is characterized by early CRC onset, high incidence of tumors in the ascending colon, excess of synchronous ...

What Happens After Menopause (WHAM)? A Progress Report of a Prospective Controlled Study of Women After Pre‐Menopausal Risk‐Reducing Bilateral Salpingo‐Oophorectomy

open access: yesBJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Surgical menopause, the removal of both ovaries prior to natural menopause, may impact short‐and long‐term physical and emotional health. An increasingly common cause of surgical menopause is risk‐reducing salpingo‐oophorectomy (RRSO) in those at high inherited risk of ovarian cancer.

Early-stage endometrioid carcinoma with MSH6 protein deficiency: pitfalls in the diagnostic interpretation of microsatellite instability

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology
ObjectiveMicrosatellite instability (MSI)/mismatch repair (MMR) protein testing is important for Lynch syndrome (LS) identification, prognostic stratification, and immune checkpoint inhibitor screening in many solid malignancies. MSH6, an MMR protein, is

Risk of Cancer With Hormone Replacement Therapy: A Narrative Review

open access: yesBJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics &Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) remains the cornerstone of menopausal symptom management, effectively alleviating vasomotor symptoms and genitourinary syndrome, whilst mitigating long‐term risks such as osteoporosis. However, despite an increasing body of evidence on the relative safety of HRT, earlier studies that demonstrated an increased ...
