Abstract excerpt
Mutator phenotypes are involved in the carcinogenesis of some cancers, e.g., defects in mismatch repair produce a mutator phenotype that drives carcinogenesis and causes microsatellite instability in hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancers and some sporadic colorectal cancers (CRC). Less understood, however, is the potential role of mutator phenotypes in microsatellite stable (MSS) CRC carcinogenesis. A novel...
