Tissue specificity in DNA repair: lessons from trinucleotide repeat instability. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
DNA must constantly be repaired to maintain genome stability. Although it is clear that DNA repair reactions depend on cell type and developmental stage, we know surprisingly little about the mechanisms that underlie this tissue specificity. This is due,

Clinical Significance of Biomarkers in Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Recurrence Prediction and Treatment Response

open access: yesCancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) accounts for a substantial proportion of head and neck cancers, with a rising incidence largely driven by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Despite advances in multimodal treatment, disease recurrence remains common and limits long‐term survival, highlighting the need for reliable ...

Founder mutation in Lynch syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
El síndrome de Lynch es la más frecuente de las neoplasias colorrectales hereditarias. Se origina por mutaciones germinales deletéreas familia-específicas en los genes que codifican proteínas de reparación del ADN: MLH1 (homólogo humano de mutL), MSH2 y ...

Characterisation of tumor‐infiltrating gamma‐delta T cells in human colorectal cancer with MHC‐I loss

open access: yesClinical &Translational Immunology, Volume 15, Issue 5, 2026.
Abstract Objectives Gamma‐delta (γδ) T cells have been associated with favorable prognoses across several malignancies, underscoring their potential as targets for novel immunotherapies. These unconventional T lymphocytes exhibit an intrinsic tropism for the tumor microenvironment, largely driven by their capacity to recognize stress‐induced antigens ...

Outcomes from the English National Lynch Syndrome transformation project

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 9, Page 2369-2379, 1 May 2026.
What's new? The elevated cancer risk conferred by Lynch syndrome can be mitigated through preventive interventions. However, Lynch syndrome often goes underdiagnosed. The National Lynch Syndrome Transformation Project in England aims to ensure that patients newly diagnosed with colorectal or endometrial cancer are offered testing for the syndrome ...

PMS2-Related Genes Flank the Rearrangement Breakpoints Associated with Williams Syndrome and Other Diseases on Human Chromosome 7

open access: yesGenomics, 1997
The human PMS2 mismatch repair gene and a family of at least 17 other related genes (named human PMSR or PMS2L genes) have been localized to human chromosome 7. Human PMS2 has been mapped previously to 7p22 and shown to be causative in hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC), but the human PMS2L genes have not been positioned in the context of the

Treatment Response and Outcomes of Prostate Cancer Patients Carrying the Germline MMS22L F722fs Mutation

open access: yesThe Prostate, Volume 86, Issue 6, Page 727-731, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Methyl Methanesulfonate‐Sensitivity Protein 22‐Like (MMS22L) plays a key role in homology‐directed DNA repair, and experimental models have shown that its loss confers sensitivity to Poly (ADP‐ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi).

DNA mismatch repair defect and intratumor heterogeneous deficiency differently impact immune responses in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

open access: yesOncoImmunology
Deficient (d) DNA mismatch repair (MMR) is a biomarker predictive of better response to PD-1 blockade immunotherapy in solid tumors. dMMR can be caused by mutations in MMR genes or by protein inactivation, which can be detected by sequencing and ...

Attitudes Toward Updated Genetic Testing Among Patients with Unexplained Mismatch Repair Deficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Individuals who have colorectal cancer (CRC) or endometrial cancer (EC) displaying loss of immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of one or more mismatch repair (MMR) proteins without a causative germline mutation are said to have unexplained mismatch repair

CD8+ T Cell Infiltration Elicits Molecular Subtype‐Biased Clinical Outcomes in Gastric Cancer Patients

open access: yesCancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 5, Page 1434-1445, May 2026.
CD8+ T cell infiltration demonstrates distinct clinical significance across molecular subtypes of gastric cancer. High infiltration correlates with improved survival in EBV‐positive and CIN subtypes, while low infiltration predicts better adjuvant chemotherapy response in MSI patients.
