Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is a dominantly inherited syndrome linked to DNA-mismatch-repair (MMR) gene defects, which also account for microsatellite instability (MSI) in tumour tissues. Diagnosis is based mainly on family history, according to widely accepted criteria (Amste

The reproducibility of microsatellite instability from different regions of the same sporadic colon cancer has not been addressed. We therefore microdissected and extracted DNA from three to nine separate regions of 13 highly unstable sporadic colon cancers. Each region was then evaluated by polymer

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is frequently associated with inherited mutation in one of four DNA mismatch repair genes. Somatic mutations in the same genes are also found in a subset of sporadic colorectal cancers. A defect in DNA mismatch repair results in an RER (replication e

The microsatellite instability that is a feature of tumors in patients with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is a consequence of defective DNA mismatch repair. Mutations in the DNA mismatch repair genes MSH2 and MLH1 may account for up to 90% of HNPCC kindreds. Microsatellite instab
