Molecular 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 کاملThe clinical impact of serrated colorectal polyps
Serrated polyps (SPs) of the colorectum pose a novel challenge to practicing gastroenterologists. Previously thought benign and unimportant, there is now compelling evidence that SPs are responsible for a significant percentage of incident colorectal cancer worldwide. In contrast to conventional adenomas, which tend to be slow growing and polypoid, SPs have unique features that undermine curren...
متن کاملDNA microsatellite instability in hyperplastic polyps, serrated adenomas, and mixed polyps: a mild mutator pathway for colorectal cancer?
AIM To investigate the distribution of DNA microsatellite instability (MSI) in a series of hyperplastic polyps, serrated adenomas, and mixed polyps of the colorectum. METHODS DNA was extracted from samples of 73 colorectal polyps comprising tubular adenomas (23), hyperplastic polyps (21), serrated adenomas (17), and mixed polyps (12). The presence of MSI was investigated at six loci: MYCL, D2...
متن کاملProspective evaluation of the proportion of sessile serrated adenoma/polyps in endoscopically diagnosed colorectal polyps with hyperplastic features1
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Sessile serrated adenoma/polyps (SSA/Ps) are considered precursors of colorectal cancers with microsatellite instability. However, it is still difficult to differentiate SSA/Ps from hyperplastic polyps endoscopically; therefore, the prevalence of SSA/Ps remains uncertain in clinical practice. This study aimed to clarify the proportion of SSA/Ps in endoscopically diagno...
متن کاملMaspin highlights colorectal serrated polyps: preliminary findings.
AIMS Maspin, a 42-kDa serine proteinase inhibitor, is a tumor suppressor protein that stimulates apoptosis and inhibits motility, invasion and cancer metastasis. Mutant maspin leads to partial loss of tumor suppressor function, decreased susceptibility to apoptosis and to malignant progression. We recently found maspin expression (ME) in the cytoplasm of serrated colonic lesions, such as hyperp...
