Microsatellite instability in colorectal cancer—the stable evidence

Microsatellite instability in colorectal cancer—the stable evidence Microsatellite instability (MSI) is a frequent molecular phenomenon of colorectal cancer and is associated with deficient DNA mismatch repair. This Review presents an overview of MSI, including its clinical features and applications. The authors discuss the prognostic and predictive value of MSI and how it can be used to improve our knowledge of other cancer subtypes. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology Springer Journals
