The DNA mismatch repair (MMR) pathway is essential in maintaining genomic stability through its role in DNA repair and the checkpoint response. Loss of DNA MMR underlies the hereditary cancer disease Lynch Syndrome (LS). Germline mutations in MSH2 account for approximately 40% of LS patients and of these, 18% are missense variants. One important clinical challenge has been discriminating betwee...
Computer science is a subject, which deals with the manipulation of data so that new data, implicit in the original, appear in a useful form. We have used the analogy of genome analysis and VIRUS (vital information recourse under siege) and analyzed MLH1, MSH2 and MSH6 gene which play an important role in repairing mistakes made in DNA replication in colon cancer. If the MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 protei...
Mutations in the mismatch repair gene MSH2 underlie hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (Lynch syndrome). Whereas disruptive mutations are overtly pathogenic, the implications of missense mutations found in sporadic colorectal cancer patients or in suspected Lynch syndrome families are often unknown. Adequate genetic counseling of mutation carriers requires phenotypic characterization of ...

Large genomic deletions within the mismatch repair MLH1 and MSH2 genes have been identified in families with the hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) syndrome, and their detection represents a technical problem. To facilitate their detection, we developed a simple semiquantitative procedure based on the multiplex PCR of short fluorescent fragments. This method allowed us to confirm...
Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is the most common genetic susceptibility syndrome for colorectal cancer. HNPCC is most frequently caused by germline mutations in the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes MSH2 and MLH1. Recently, mutations in another MMR gene, MSH6 (also known as GTBP), have also been shown to result in HNPCC. Preliminary data indicate that the phenotype related to...
BACKGROUND In the workup of patients with suspected hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), detection of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) could help pinpoint the mismatch-repair (MMR) gene carrying the germline mutation, but analysis of microsatellite markers has proved unreliable for this purpose. We developed a simple, low-cost method based on single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genot...
Women with germ-line mutations in the mismatch repair genes (responsible for hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer) face an increased risk of colonic and endometrial cancer. However, these germ-line mutations are rare and are responsible for fewer than 1% of endometrial cancers. Therefore, we examined whether or not common variants of the hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer-associated...
Mutations in the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) gene hMSH2 underlie a novel pathway of tumorigenesis for some cancers of epithelial origin. Mice deficient in MSH2 are susceptible to lymphomas but defects in this gene have not been identified in human lymphoid tumors. To determine if the lymphomas these mice develop are related to a particular subtype of human lymphoma we evaluated 20 clinically ill ...
Background. Infertility affects ,20% of couples in Europe and in 50% of cases the problem lies with the male partner. The impact of damaged DNA originating in the male germ line on infertility is poorly understood but may increase miscarriage. Mouse models allow us to investigate how deficiencies in DNA repair/damage response pathways impact on formation and function of male germ cells. We have...
