To better elucidate the role of genetic instability in the development of gastric cancer, microsatellite alterations were examined in a total of 30 gastric cancers that developed in 14 Japanese patients with multiple gastric cancers, which are considered to have possibly occurred under the same gene
Microsatellite instability (MSI), which is recognized as an important mechanism in tumorigenesis, has been reported in familial gastric cancers (FGC). However, genetic defects responsible for this phenotype, that is, mutations in mismatchrepair genes such as hMLH1 and hMSH2, have not been detected i
Aberrant 5Π CpG island methylation is an alternative mechanism of gene inactivation during the development of cancer as demonstrated for several tumor-suppressor genes. Also, marked relationship of microsatellite instability (MSI) and DNA methylation has been reported in sporadic colorectal cancer,
