OBJECTIVE We aimed to evaluate the inactivation of COX-2, HMLH1 and CDKN2A by promoter methylation and its relationship with the infection by different Helicobacter pylori strains in gastric cancer. METHODS DNA extracted from 76 H. pylori-positive gastric tumor samples was available for promoter methylation identification by methylation-specific PCR and H. pylori subtyping by PCR. Immunohisto...
Backgrounds Trifluridine is an active antitumor component of TAS-102 that resembles 5-fluorouracil. Although patients with advanced colorectal cancer (CRC) exhibiting a mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency reportedly do not benefit from 5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy and we previously reported that truncated methyl-CpG binding domain protein 4 (MBD4) enhances 5-fluorouracil cytotoxicity in MMR-d...
Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) results from inactivating germline mutations in a set of DNA-mismatch-repair genes, of which the most clinically relevant are hMSH2 and hMLH1. Computer-assisted pedigree risk assessment tools are available to assist in the calculation of an individual's likelihood of bearing such a deleterious mutation. One such tool, cancergene version 3.4 (ht...
Human exonuclease 1 (hEXO1) is implicated in DNA mismatch repair (MMR) and mutations in hEXO1 may be associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). Since the subcellular localization of MMR proteins is essential for proper MMR function, we characterized possible nuclear localization signals (NLSs) in hEXO1. Using fluorescent fusion proteins, we show that the sequence 418KRPR...
Selection of cells for resistance to cisplatin, a well-recognized mutagen, could result in mutations in genes involved in DNA mismatch repair and thereby to resistance to DNA-alkylating agents. Parental cells of the human ovarian adenocarcinoma cell line 2008 expressed hMLH1 when analyzed with immunoblot. One subline selected for resistance to cisplatin (2008/A) expressed no hMLH1, whereas anot...
The human mismatch repair (MMR) proteins hMLH1 and hPMS2 function in MMR as a heterodimer. Cells lacking either protein have a strong mutator phenotype and display microsatellite instability, yet mutations in the hMLH1 gene account for approximately 50% of hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer families, whereas hPMS2 mutations are substantially less frequent and less penetrant. Similarly, in the...
OBJECTIVE We aimed to explore the association of P16, MGMT and HMLH1 with gastric cancer and their relation with Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR). METHODS 322 gastric patients who were confirmed with pathological diagnosis were included in our study. Aberrant DNA methylation of P16, MGMT and HMLH1 and polymorphisms of MTHFR C677T and A1298C were detected using PCR-RFLP. RESULTS T...
We aimed to explore the association between aberrant DNA methylation of the O(6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) and human mutL homolog 1 (hMLH1) genes with gastric cancer. A total of 283 gastric cancer patients who were confirmed by pathological diagnosis were included in our study. Aberrant DNA methylation of MGMT and hMLH1 were detected. The proportions of DNA hypermethylation in ...
Background and aims: Germline mutations in mismatch repair (MMR) genes cause a greatly increased risk of cancer of the gastrointestinal and female reproductive tracts (hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC)). Loss of MMR expression is common in colorectal cancer (CRC) overall. Such loss is assumed to be acquired predominantly, although a population of CRC cases will include individu...
PURPOSE Early events in colorectal tumorigenesis include mutation of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene and epigenetic hypermethylation with transcriptional silencing of the O(6)-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), human mut L homologue 1 (hMLH1), and P16/CDKN2A genes. Epigenetic alterations affect genetic events: Loss of MGMT via hypermethylation reportedly predisposes to guanin...
