Prevalence and implications of elevated microsatellite alterations at selected tetranucleotides in cancer

1 Apr 2014

Abstract excerpt

Elevated microsatellite alterations at selected tetranucleotides (EMAST), a variation of microsatellite instability (MSI), has been reported in a variety of malignancies (e.g., neoplasias of the lung, head and neck, colorectal region, skin, urinary tract and reproductive organs). EMAST is more prominent at organ sites with potential external exposure to carcinogens (e.g., head, neck, lung, urinary bladder and...
