Abstract excerpt
Replication error (RER) phenotype, caused by deficiency of DNA mismatch repair genes and revealed by widespread microsatellite instability, has been detected in subsets of a wide variety of solid tumors, but rarely in lymphomas in general. So far, the involvement of RER phenotype in the pathogenesis of gastric lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type has not been conclusively established. We...
