Comprehensive Mutation Analysis in Colorectal Flat Adenomas
BACKGROUND Flat adenomas are a subgroup of colorectal adenomas that have been associated with a distinct biology and a more aggressive clinical behavior compared to their polypoid counterparts. In the present study, we aimed to compare the mutation spectrum of 14 cancer genes, between these two phenotypes. METHODS A consecutive series of 106 flat and 93 polypoid adenomas was analyzed retrospe...
متن کاملChromosome 5q loss in colorectal flat adenomas.
PURPOSE Flat adenomas are a subgroup of colorectal adenomas that have been associated with a more aggressive clinical behavior compared with their polypoid counterparts. Here, we aimed to compare one of the molecular changes most explicitly associated with adenoma to carcinoma progression, that is, chromosomal instability, between flat and polypoid colorectal adenomas. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Con...

متن کاملp53 expression and K-ras mutation in colorectal adenomas.
The frequency of p53 overexpression and K-ras codon 12 mutation was investigated in a series of colorectal adenomas. p53 was detected by immunohistochemistry in only 5% of tumours, whereas K-ras mutation was found in eight of 30 adenomas examined. In vitro, mutant p53 and ras genes cooperate to transform primary rat cells into a tumourigenic cell line. The presence of both p53 overexpression an...
متن کاملComprehensive DNA Methylation Analysis Reveals a Common Ten-Gene Methylation Signature in Colorectal Adenomas and Carcinomas
Microarray analysis of promoter hypermethylation provides insight into the role and extent of DNA methylation in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC) and may be co-monitored with the appearance of driver mutations. Colonic biopsy samples were obtained endoscopically from 10 normal, 23 adenoma (17 low-grade (LGD) and 6 high-grade dysplasia (HGD)), and 8 ulcerative colitis (UC) patients (4 ...
