Microsatellite Instability in the Tumor Microenvironment: The Role of Inflammation and the Microbiome
1 Apr 2025
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Microsatellite instability (MSI) is a hallmark of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency that leads to genomic instability and increased cancer risk. The tumor microenvironment (TME) significantly influences MSI-driven tumorigenesis, and emerging evidence points to a critical role of the microbiome in shaping this complex interplay. METHODS: This review comprehensively examines the existing literature...
