In 2002, Al-Tassan and co-workers described for the first time a recessive form of inherited polyposis associated with germline mutations of MUTYH, a gene encoding a base excision repair (BER) protein that counteracts the DNA damage induced by the ...

Genetic variants in MUTYH are not associated with endometrial cancer risk
Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), also known as Lynch syndrome, is an autosomal dominant inherited predisposition to a number of epithelial cancers, most notably colorectal and endometrial cancer.

Monoallelic deleterious MUTYH mutations generate colorectal cancer: A case report
Key clinical message Here we reported a particular case of MUTYH‐associated polyposis (MAP) that had only one rare heterozygous variant, but some particular clinical manifestations contributed to occur in this male patient by only one defective MUTYH ...

Contribution of MUTYH Variants to Male Breast Cancer Risk: Results From a Multicenter Study in Italy
Inherited mutations in BRCA1, and, mainly, BRCA2 genes are associated with increased risk of male breast cancer (MBC). Mutations in PALB2 and CHEK2 genes may also increase MBC risk.

Case Report: The Role of Molecular Analysis of the MUTYH Gene in Asymptomatic Individuals
MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP) is a rare hereditary condition caused by the biallelic mutation in the MUTYH gene encoding MUTYH glycosylase. This enzyme is a key member of the base excision repair (BER) pathway responsible for the repair of DNA lesions

AXIN2-Associated Adenomatous Colorectal Polyposis
Introduction Most cases of colorectal cancer (CRC) occur sporadically; however, ∼ 3% to 6% of all CRCs are related to inherited syndromes, such as Lynch syndrome and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP).

8-Oxoguanine, a common mutagenic DNA lesion, generates G:C>T:A transversions via mispairing with adenine during DNA replication. When operating normally, the MUTYH DNA glycosylase prevents 8-oxoguanine-related mutagenesis by excising the incorporated ...
