Background. Hereditary polyposis syndromes (HPS) are a group of rare genetic diseases characterized by multiple epithelial lesions in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) with high risk of malignancy and neoplasia development in other localizations. The case

MUTYH-associated polyposis syndrome is an uncommon, autosomal recessive colorectal polyposis syndrome caused by biallelic inactivation of MUTYH. Most patients present with multiple colorectal polyps. However, other primary tumor sites have been described

Backgrounds MUTYH‐associated polyposis (MAP) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by biallelic pathogenic variants (PV) of the MUTYH gene. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic causes of unexplained polyposis patients with monoallelic ...

Duodenal carcinoma in MUTYH-associated polyposis [PDF]
Bi-allelic germline mutations in the MUTYH gene give rise to multiple adenomas and an increased incidence of colorectal cancer. In addition, duodenal adenomas and other extra-colonic manifestations have been described in MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP) patients. We describe two patients with bi-allelic MUTYH gene mutations with duodenal carcinoma. The

MUTYH and the mismatch repair system: partners in crime? [PDF]
Biallelic germline mutations of MUTYH-a gene encoding a base excision repair protein-are associated with an increased susceptibility of colorectal cancer. Whether monoallelic MUTYH mutations also increase cancer risk is not yet clear, although there is some evidence suggesting a slight increase of risk.

Background: Familial adenomatous polyposis (OMIM #175100) and MUTYH-associated polyposis (OMIM #608456) are rare cancerprone disorders characterized by hundreds of adenomatous polyps in the colon and rectum, which have a high probability of malignant ...

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.

and polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to osteoarthritis in the Chinese Han population
Background This study analyzed the associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the mutY homolog gene ( MUTYH ) and the calcium release-activated calcium channel gene ( ORAI1 ) with susceptibility to osteoarthritis in the Chinese Han ...
