Abstract excerpt
A subset of sporadic gastric cancers (GC) exhibits microsatellite instability (MSI). To define the precise role of MSI in GC, a total of 100 patients with sporadic GC were classified into three groups, i.e., high-frequency MSI (MSI-H), low-frequency MSI (MSI-L), and microsatellite stable (MSS), based on 10 microsatellite markers. Mutational analyses of TGFbetaRII, IGFIIR, BAX, MSH3, MSH6, E2F4, MSH2, MLH1, and...
