Promoter methylation of the hMLH1 gene and protein expression of human mutL homolog 1 and human mutS homolog 2 in resected esophageal squamous cell carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2005
Aberrant expression of mismatch repair genes, such as human mutL homolog 1 (hMLH1) and human mutS homolog 2 (hMSH2), are common in some human cancers, and promoter methylation is believed to inactivate expression of hMLH1. We investigated whether promoter methylation is involved in loss of hMLH1 protein and whether aberrant expression of hMLH1 and ...

Clinical significance of chromodomain helicase/ATPase DNA binding protein 1‑like and human mutL homolog�1 gene expression in cholangiocarcinoma

open access: yesOncology Letters, 2018
Cholangiocarcinoma is a highly malignant form of gastrointestinal cancer with an unfavorable prognosis. The novel oncogene chromodomain helicase/ATPase DNA binding protein 1-like (CHD1L) has been confirmed to serve a vital role in numerous types of cancer, including liver cancer.

Mismatch repair proteins play a role in ATR activation upon temozolomide treatment in MGMT-methylated glioblastoma

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The methylation status of the O6-methylguanine methyltransferase (MGMT) gene promoter has been widely accepted as a prognostic biomarker for treatment with the alkylator, temozolomide (TMZ). In the absence of promoter methylation, the MGMT enzyme removes

Diagnosis and functional prediction of microbial markers in tumor tissues of sporadic colorectal cancer patients associated with the MLH1 protein phenotype

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
ObjectiveMost patients with sporadic colorectal cancer (SCRC) develop microsatellite instability because of defects in mismatch repair (MMR). Moreover, the gut microbiome plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of SCRC.

Targeting mitochondrial DNA polymerase gamma for selective inhibition of MLH1 deficient colon cancer growth.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Synthetic lethality in DNA repair pathways is an important strategy for the selective treatment of cancer cells without harming healthy cells and developing cancer-specific drugs. The synthetic lethal interaction between the mismatch repair (MMR) protein,

Mismatch Repair Protein Deficiency and Its Relationship with Clinicopathological Factors in Endometrial Cancer: A Retrospective Study. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Cancer
Background: The present study aimed to determine the frequency of mismatch repair (MMR) protein expression loss, as identified using immunohistochemistry (IHC), in tumor cells of endometrial cancer patients and the potential associations between this ...

Expression and prognostic significance of MLH1 and GPRC5C in resectable hepatocellular carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Cancer
Background It has recently been shown that mut-L homolog 1 (MLH1), frequently lost in cancer initiation and progression, inhibited pancreatic cancer metastatic potential by downregulating G-protein coupled receptor C5C (GPRC5C). However, their expression

Prevalence of DNA Mismatch Repair Deficiencies in Multiple Solid Tumor Types in China. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Evid Based Med
ABSTRACT Aim Microsatellite instability (MSI) as a result of deficient deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) mismatch repair (dMMR) is a key contributor to the development of tumors with a high mutation rate and cancer‐specific neoantigens. dMMR identification can be beneficial for selection of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy‐eligible patients.

Successful Identification and Treatment of Cancer of Unknown Primary Originating From Gastric Cancer Using Comprehensive Genomic Profiling and Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy: A Case Report. [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Rep (Hoboken)
ABSTRACT Background Cancer of unknown primary (CUP) is a challenging malignancy characterized by metastatic tumors with an unidentified primary site, even after extensive pathological and radiographic evaluation. Recent advancements in gene expression profiling and comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) using next‐generation sequencing (NGS) have ...
