Abstract: Importance Lynch syndrome is caused by dominantly inherited germline mutations that predispose individuals to colorectal, endometrial, ovarian, and other cancers through inactivation of the cellular mismatch repair system. Lynch syndrome–associated cancers are amenable to surveillance… read more here.

Abstract: INTRODUCTION Lynch syndrome (LS) is a hereditary condition that increases the risk of colorectal (CRC) and extracolonic cancers that exhibit microsatellite instability (MSI-H). MSI-H is driven by defective mismatch repair (dMMR), and approximately 15% of… read more here.

Abstract: Interpretation of missense variants remains a major challenge for genetic diagnosis, even in well‐known genes such as the DNA‐mismatch repair (MMR) genes involved in Lynch syndrome. We report the characterization of a variant in MSH2:… read more here.

Abstract: Lynch syndrome is caused by germline mutations of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes. MMR deficiency has long been regarded as a secondary event in the pathogenesis of Lynch syndrome colorectal cancers. Recently, this concept has… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Pancreatic and biliary tract cancers are one of the Lynch syndrome-associated malignancies. There are few reports describing the patients' background and clinical characteristics. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with Lynch… read more here.
