Concordance between microsatellite instability and mismatch repair protein expression in colorectal cancer and their clinicopathological characteristics: a retrospective analysis of 502 cases

Abstract excerpt

Microsatellite instability (MSI) is one of the hallmarks of colorectal cancer (CRC). Mismatch repair (MMR) protein expression may reflect MSI status. To analyze the concordance between MSI and MMR expression in CRC and their clinicopathological characteristics, 502 CRC patients were retrospectively collected in this study. Polymerase chain reaction-capillary electrophoresis (PCR-CE) was used to measure MSI, and...
