introduction: to protect genomes of all organisms from internal and external damages and maintain the genome integrity and the continuity of life, repair system has been developed in all living cells. defects in repair system are responsible for various kinds of disease including cancers and neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis (ms). the relationship between various components ...
Synthetic sickness/lethality (SSL) can be exploited to develop therapeutic strategies for cancer. Deficiencies in the tumor suppressor proteins MLH1 and MSH2 have been implicated in cancer. Here we demonstrate that deficiency in MSH2 is SSL with inhibition of the DNA polymerase POLB, whereas deficiency in MLH1 is SSL with DNA polymerase POLG inhibition. Both SSLs led to the accumulation of 8-ox...
DNA testing is recommended in families fulfilling at least “suspected HNPCC” criteria. After exclusion of FAP (characteristic FAP features include polyposis, congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium, cysts and osteomata of bones of the maxilla and mandible, desmoid tumours), immunohistochemical analyses (IHC) of MLH1, MSH2 and MSH6 expression in malignant tissues should be perfo...
Mutations in DNA MMR genes, mainly MSH2 and MLH1, account for the majority of HNPCC, an autosomal dominant predisposition to colorectal cancer and other malignancies. The evaluation of many questions regarding HNPCC requires clinically and genetically well-characterized HNPCC patient cohorts of reasonable size. One main focus of this multicenter study is the evaluation of the mutation spectrum ...
Large genomic rearrangements (LGRs) in DNA-mismatch-repair (MMR) genes, particularly among MSH2 gene, are frequently involved in the etiology of Lynch syndrome (LS). The Multiplex Ligation and Probe Amplification assay (MLPA) is commonly used to identify such alterations. However, in most cases, the MLPA-identified alteration is not characterized at the molecular level, which might be important...
PURPOSE The aim of the study was the analysis of the involvement and phenotypic manifestations of MSH6 germline mutations in families suspected of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients were preselected among 706 families by microsatellite instability, immunohistochemistry, and/or exclusion of MLH1 or MSH2 mutations and were subjected to MSH6 mutation...
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is an autosomal dominant disease with high penetrance, caused by germline mutations in the mismatch repair (MMR) genes MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2 and MLH3. Most reported pathogenic mutations are point mutations, comprising single base substitutions, small insertions and deletions. In addition, genomic rearrangements, such as large deletions and dupl...
Mutations in DNA MMR genes, mainly MSH2 and MLH1, are the most frequent cause of HNPCC, an autosomal dominant predisposition to colorectal cancer and other malignancies. In our study we tested 46 unrelated patients with suspected HNPCC, who met Bethesda criteria. Tumors from probands (when available) were tested by immunohistochemistry for deficiencies in MLH1, PMS2, MSH2 and MSH6. DNA samples ...
