PURPOSE To explore the molecular bases of potential new pharmacologic targets in aggressive fibromatosis (desmoid tumor). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Tumor specimens from 14 patients surgically treated for aggressive fibromatosis (6 familial adenomatous polyposis and 8 sporadic cases), analyzed for adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) and CTNNB1 (beta-catenin) mutations, were further investigated for bet...
Familial adenomatous polyposis is an autosomal dominant disease characterised by the development of hundreds of colorectal adenomas in young adults. Occult radio-opaque jaw lesions and pigmented ocular fundus lesions (formerly called congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium) are extraintestinal phenotypic markers for this disorder. We evaluated the usefulness of the combination ...
The APC gene at human chromosome 5q21 is responsible for familial adenomatous polyposis coli. Furthermore, sporadic cancers of not only colon but also other digestive organs often contain mutations in the APC gene. A dominant mouse mutation Min that was generated by chemical mutagenesis and causes polyposis in the digestive tract is in the mouse homologue of the human APC gene. The APC mRNA is ...
MAP (MutYH-associated polyposis) is a recently described colorectal adenoma and carcinoma predisposition syndrome that is associated with biallelic-inherited mutations of the human MutY homologue gene, MutYH. MutYH is often also termed MYH. MAP tumours display a mutational signature of somatic guanine-to-thymine transversion mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli and K-ras genes, reflectin...
Allele-specific expression (ASE) of the Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) gene occurs in up to one-third of families with adenomatous polyposis (FAP) that have screened mutation-negative by conventional techniques. To advance our understanding of the genomic basis of this phenomenon, 54 APC mutation-negative families (21 with classical FAP and 33 with attenuated FAP, AFAP) were investigated. We ...
Abbreviations used in this paper: AFAP, attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis; AGA, American Gastroenterological Association; AUC, area under the curve; CI, confidence interval; CRC, colorectal cancer; FAP, familial adenomatous polyposis; HNPCC, hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer; IHC, immunohistochemistry; MAP, MUTYH-associated polyposis; MMR, mismatch repair; MSI, microsatellite in...
Two main colorectal polyposis syndromes have been described, familial adenomatous polyposis and MUTYH-associated polyposis syndromes. Some polyposis remains unexplained: 20% of adenomatous polyposis and serrated polyposis. The aim of this study was to evaluate in a cohort of patients with unexplained polyposis whether a genetic defect could be detected. Individuals presenting polyposis with mor...
Background and Aim. Germline mutations of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene cause familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), an autosomal dominant inherited disease mainly characterized by colorectal adenomatous polyposis. Genetic studies of FAP have shown that somatic APC mutations are dependent on the position of the germline APC mutation. However, the molecular mechanism underlying these ...
The aim of this study was to assess whether restorative proctocolectomy was suitable as an initial procedure for selected familial adenomatous polyposis patients with coexisting colorectal cancer. Six malignancy patients who underwent restorative proctocolectomy for familial adenomatous polyposis were reviewed. At the time of restorative proctocolectomy, cancer was not suspected in four patient...
