PMS2 amplification contributes brain metastasis from lung cancer

open access: yesBiological Procedures Online
Background Lung adenocarcinoma metastasizing to the brain results in a notable increase in patient mortality. The high incidence and its impact on survival presents a critical unmet need to develop an improved understanding of its mechanisms.

Colorectal Carcinoma in a Young Male Diagnosed as Lynch Syndrome with a Rare PMS2 Pathogenic Germline Variant: A Case Report [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Colorectal cancers in young people can be due to inherited mutations in 5-10% of cases, among which Lynch syndrome is the most common. Lynch syndrome is defined as a genetic susceptibility to various types of cancer, with non polyposis colorectal cancer ...

DNA-Peptide Crosslinks Placed at Codon 249 of the p53 Tumor Suppressor Gene Induce G to A Transitions in Human Cells. [PDF]

open access: yesChembiochem
DNA‐peptide cross‐links (DpCs) are ubiquitous DNA lesions that form when cellular proteins become covalently trapped on DNA strands and are processed by proteases. DpCs are hypothesized to play a role in antitumor activity of chemotherapeutic drugs and to contribute to aging.

DNA Repair Pathway Variants Are Enriched in Individuals with Biallelic AAGGG CANVAS and RFC1‐Related Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cerebellar ataxia, neuropathy and vestibular are flexia syndrome (CANVAS) and RFC1‐related disease are most commonly caused by biallelic AAGGG repeat expansions in RFC1. The high population frequency of this expansion compared to the frequency of CANVAS suggests incomplete penetrance.

PMS2 monoallelic mutation carriers: The known unknown

open access: yes, 2016
Germ-line mutations in MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2 have been shown to cause Lynch syndrome. The penetrance of the cancer and tumor spectrum has been repeatedly studied, and multiple professional societies have proposed clinical management guidelines for ...

Predictive functional assay‐based classification of PMS2 variants in Lynch syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The large majority of germline alterations identified in the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) gene PMS2, a low‐penetrance gene for the cancer predisposition Lynch syndrome, represent variants of uncertain significance (VUS).

Dedifferentiation in endometrial cancer is associated with HLA‐I silencing that may be restored by IFN‐γ

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Dedifferentiated endometrial carcinoma occurs when a prognostically favorable low‐grade endometrial carcinoma transforms into a highly aggressive undifferentiated carcinoma following genomic inactivation of core SWItch/Sucrose Non‐Fermentable (SWI/SNF) complex protein(s).
