Microsatellite Instability and DNA Mismatch Repair Protein Deficiency in Lynch Syndrome Colorectal Polyps
"Lynch syndrome results from germline mutations in one
of the genes involved with DNA mismatch repair (MMR):
MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2, or EPCAM/TACSTD."
"The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence
of MSI and loss of MMR protein expression by immunohistochemistry
in colorectal polyps from patients with genetically confirmed Lynch syndrome."
