Microsatellite Instability of Gastric and Colorectal Cancers as a Predictor of Synchronous Gastric or Colorectal Neoplasms
BACKGROUND/AIMS Microsatellite instability (MSI) plays a crucial role in gastrointestinal carcinogenesis. The aim of this study was to clarify whether MSI is a useful marker for predicting synchronous gastric and colorectal neoplasms. METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent both esophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy before the resection of gastric or colorectal cancers were included. ...

متن کاملThymidylate synthase expression in colon carcinomas with microsatellite instability.
PURPOSE Colon cancer cells with high-frequency microsatellite instability (MSI-H) display resistance to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) that can be reversed by restoring DNA mismatch repair (MMR) proficiency. Given that thymidylate synthase (TS) is inhibited by 5-FU, we studied the relationship between MSI and TS expression, and the prognostic effect of these and other markers (i.e., p53 and 17p allelic ...
متن کاملLow-level microsatellite instability in most colorectal carcinomas.
Twelve to 16% of colorectal cancers (CRCs) display a high degree of microsatellite instability (MSI-H), whereas most are believed to be microsatellite stable (MSS). The existence of a low degree of instability (MSI-L) group has also been proposed. By using the Bethesda panel of microsatellite markers, the microsatellite instability (MSI) status of CRCs can be determined. This set is recommended...
متن کاملDietary factors and microsatellite instability in sporadic colon carcinomas.
Microsatellite instability (MSI) occurs in 10-20% of the sporadic colon carcinomas and appears to be primarily due to alterations in hMLH1 and hMSH2. Little is known about the role of diet in MSI-related colon carcinogenesis. We used data from a Dutch population-based case-control study on sporadic colon carcinomas (184 cases and 259 controls) to evaluate associations between dietary factors pr...
