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]
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 ...

The Keynote-177 Randomized Controlled Trial of First-line PD-1 Blockade for Microsatellite-High or Mismatch Repair-Deficient Advanced Colorectal Cancer: Potential Consequences of the Cross-Over Trial Design and Related Issues. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Some new oncology drugs offer substantial patient health benefit. However, due to high costs, many remain unavailable to patients in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Next to exorbitant drug pricing, uncertainty of the magnitude of benefit of new treatments can contribute to differences in global access to cancer treatments, even in high ...

Establishment of a Model to Predict the Prognosis of Endometrial Carcinoma Using Tumor‐Infiltrating Lymphocytes Evaluated With Artificial Intelligence: A Retrospective Analysis [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background The objective of this study was to establish a new model for predicting the prognosis of endometrial carcinoma (EC) using tumor‐infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) based on artificial intelligence (AI). Methods Patients with EC who were treated between 1989 and 2022 were included in this study.

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.

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.

The WHO Classification of Genetic Tumour Syndromes: Considerations for Genetics
The WHO Classification of Tumours underpins the diagnosis of neoplastic conditions. The new WHO classification of genetic tumour syndromes (GTS) provides international standards for their diagnosis. This diagram highlights the chromosomal distribution of the genes involved in the GTS covered in this classification.
