Inactivation of hMSH2, one of the most commonly hMMR genes, is a described alternative pathway in cancer development and progression. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
MSH2 DNA mismatch repair protein MSH2 | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The tumor specimens showed no MLH1 expression but did show normal MSH2 expression. p53 was not expressed. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Unlike HNPCC associated colorectal carcinoma, which appears to frequently have MLH1 and MSH2 mutations, endometrial carcinomas have a higher probability of MSH2 and MSH6 mutations [13, 25]. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The mechanism for the inactivation of MSH2 is still not clear, as promoter methylation and mutations are rare. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
MSI frequency in cells deficient of MMR genes (hMSH2, hMLH1, hMSH6) was markedly reduced after long-term (> 10 weeks) NSAID treatment. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Loss of heterozygosity in adenomyosis on hMSH2, hMLH1, p16Ink4 and GALT loci. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Because we noted fluctuation in hMSH2 levels throughout the treatment of several patients, it is possible that hMSH2 downregulation occurs at the post-transcriptional level and could be related to the use of chemotherapy based on alkylating agents. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
While all 9 tumors with hMLH1, hMSH2, or hPMS2 losses were MSI-H, only 2/5 of the CRCs with isolated losses of hMSH6 were MSI-H; in both cases, just 3/5 markers were mutated and in the other three, none were mutated. | |||||||||||||||
