Mutational germline analysis of hMSH2 and hMLH1 genes in early onset colorectal cancer patients
EDITOR—Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is a heterogeneous autosomal dominant disease with incomplete penetrance. The frequency is estimated at 1:200/1:1000. HNPCC results from constitutional mutation in one of the five human mismatch repair genes (MMR) that have so far been implicated: hMSH2, hMLH1, hPMS1, hPMS2, and hMSH6. 2 hMSH2 and hMLH1 account for the majority of mutati...

متن کاملPrevalence of Pathological Germline Mutations of hMLH1 and hMSH2 Genes in Colorectal Cancer
The prevalence of pathological germline mutations in colorectal cancer has been widely studied, as germline mutations in the DNA mismatch repair genes hMLH1 and hMSH2 confer a high risk of colorectal cancer. However, because the sample size and population of previous studies are very different from each other, the conclusions still remain controversial. In this paper, Databases such as PubMed w...
