Sensitive detection of microsatellite instability in tissues and liquid biopsies: Recent developments and updates

Abstract excerpt

Microsatellite instability (MSI), a phenotype displayed as deletions/insertions of repetitive genomic sequences, has drawn great attention due to its application in cancer including diagnosis, prognosis and immunotherapy response prediction. Several methods have been developed for the detection of MSI, facilitating the MSI classification of cancer patients. In view of recent interest in minimally-invasive...
