Frequent frameshift mutations of RIZ in sporadic gastrointestinal and endometrial carcinomas with microsatellite instability.
Many lines of evidence suggest that the retinoblastoma protein interacting zinc finger gene RIZ is a strong candidate for the tumor suppressor locus on 1p36, a region commonly deleted in many human cancers with chromosomal instability. In addition, a role for RIZ in tumors of the microsatellite instability pathway is suggested by frequent frameshift mutations in hereditary non-polyposis colorec...
متن کاملA Frameshift Mutation of the Pro-Apoptotic VDAC1 Gene in Cancers with Microsatellite Instability
Dear editor, Apoptosis is a fundamental biochemical cell-death pathway that plays important roles in various physiological and pathological processes during fetal development and in adult tissues. In the intrinsic pathway, a number of death stimuli engage the apoptotic machinery by causing release of cytochrome c from mitochondria, which in turn induces recruitment of caspase-9 into an apoptoso...
متن کاملFrameshift mutations at coding mononucleotide repeats of the hRAD50 gene in gastrointestinal carcinomas with microsatellite instability.
Microsatellite instability (MSI) and frameshift mutations in genes containing nucleotide repeats have been reported in a subset of colorectal and gastric carcinomas. This study describes the analysis of MSI-positive colorectal (39 cases) and gastric carcinomas (36 cases) for the presence of frameshift mutations of the six genes known to be involved in DNA repair and containing mononucleotide re...
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...
متن کاملTumor-specific immunological recognition of frameshift-mutated peptides in colon cancer with microsatellite instability.
Colorectal cancers with microsatellite instability (MSI+ CRCs) caused by dysfunction of DNA mismatch repair have unique clinicopathological characteristics including good prognosis with T-cell infiltration in tumor. To identify tumor antigens that induce immune response against MSI+ CRC, SEREX (serological analysis of recombinant cDNA expression cloning) was applied. By screening a lambda phage...
