Microsatellite instability analysis in pituitary adenomas.
OBJECTIVE Mutator phenotypes with microsatellite instability (MSI) are observed in a subset of solid tumors including those localized in the brain. MSI arises from impaired DNA mismatch repair. It can be a potential marker of resistance to radiation and chemotherapy, as demonstrated for several cancer types. Our study aims are to investigate MSI incidence in pituitary adenomas (PA) with a curre...
متن کاملMutational Analysis of ZFY in Sporadic Parathyroid Adenomas
Context The molecular pathogenesis of sporadic parathyroid adenomas is incompletely understood, with alterations in cyclin D1/PRAD1 and MEN1 most firmly established as genetic drivers. The gene encoding the X-linked zinc finger protein (ZFX) has recently been implicated in the pathogenesis of a subset of parathyroid adenomas after recurrent, hotspot-focused somatic mutations were identified. ZF...

متن کاملClinical Significance of Microsatellite Instability in Sporadic Epithelial Ovarian Tumors
PURPOSE We evaluated the expression of microsatellite instability (MSI) in sporadic ovarian tumors using 5 standard and 9 new MSI markers to determine the clinical significance of MSI in sporadic epithelial ovarian tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS MSI was examined in 21 borderline and 25 malignant ovarian tumors. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed using the 5 markers recommended by th...
متن کاملMicrosatellite instability in solitary and sporadic gastric cancer.
UNLABELLED Recently, the presence of microsatellite instability (MSI) has been reported in gastric cancer and associated with older age of presentation, distal tumor location, early disease staging, and better overall prognosis. Different characteristics in presentation and in tumor behavior may be explained by different genetic alterations during carcinogenesis of gastric cancer. Identificatio...
