Colorectal cancers with microsatellite instability display mRNA expression signatures characteristic of increased immunogenicity
2004-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Colorectal cancers displaying high-degree microsatellite instability (MSI-H) have an improved prognosis compared to microsatellite stable (MSS) cancers. The observation of pronounced lymphocytic infiltrates suggests that MSI-H cancers are inherently more immunogenic. We aimed to compare the gene expression profiles of MSI-H and MSS cancers to provide evidence for an activated immune response in the former. We anal...
