Serrated Pathway Adenocarcinomas: Molecular and Immunohistochemical Insights into Their Recognition
INTRODUCTION Colorectal adenocarcinomas (CRC) developed through serrated pathway seem to present particular behavior compared with the non-serrated ones, but recognition of them is difficult to do. The aim of our paper was to establish some criteria to facilitate their identification. MATERIALS AND METHODS In 170 consecutive CRCs, we performed immunohistochemical staining with Cytokeratin 7 (...
متن کاملMolecular characteristics of colorectal serrated polyps and hyperplastic polyps
The serrated neoplasia pathway of colorectal carcinogenesis is characterized by BRAF mutation and aberrant DNA methylation, which have not been reported on Korean patients. The aim of this study was to investigate BRAF mutation and DNA methylation in colorectal serrated polyps and the right colon.Between 2005 and 2013, 146 colon polyps (47 tubular adenomas [TAs], 53 traditional serrated adenoma...
متن کاملHypermethylation of the hMLH1 promoter in colon cancer with microsatellite instability.
Recent studies have demonstrated the presence of microsatellite instability (MSI) in tumors from patients with hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer and in a subset of patients with sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC). In sporadic CRC, three tumor phenotypes have been defined: microsatellite stable (MSS), low-frequency MSI, and high-frequency MSI (MSI-H). Although defective mismatch repair, consist...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Association between CIMP and BRAFV600E in Colorectal Cancer by DNA Methylation Profiling
A CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) is displayed by a distinct subset of colorectal cancers with a high frequency of DNA hypermethylation in a specific group of CpG islands. Recent studies have shown that an activating mutation of BRAF (BRAF(V600E)) is tightly associated with CIMP, raising the question of whether BRAF(V600E) plays a causal role in the development of CIMP or whether CIMP pr...
متن کاملMGMT and MLH1 promoter methylation versus APC, KRAS and BRAF gene mutations in colorectal cancer: indications for distinct pathways and sequence of events.
BACKGROUND To study how caretaker gene silencing relates to gatekeeper mutations in colorectal cancer (CRC), we investigated whether O6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) and Human Mut-L Homologue 1 (MLH1) promoter hypermethylation are associated with APC, KRAS and BRAF mutations among 734 CRC patients. METHODS We compared MGMT hypermethylation with G:C > A:T mutations in APC and KRAS...
