Journal ArticleDOI
TEAD2, a Hippo pathway gene, is somatically mutated in gastric and colorectal cancers with high microsatellite instability.
TL;DR: It is found that human TEAD2 gene had a mononucleotide repeat in its coding sequences that could be targets for frameshift mutation in cancers with microsatellite instability (MSI).
Journal ArticleDOI
Decreased expression of endonuclease G (EndoG), a pro-apoptotic protein, in hepatocellular carcinomas
TL;DR: EndoG expression is frequently lost in HCCs, cirrhosis and normal liver tissues by immunohistochemistry, and it is hypothesized that EndoG function might be altered by aberrant expression in human H CCs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Somatic mutation of EXO1 gene in gastric and colorectal cancers with microsatellite instability
TL;DR: It is found that there are two mononucleotide repeats in the coding exons of EXO1 gene that could be potential mutation targets in cancers with MSI that are characterized by length alterations in simple repeated monoor dinucleotide DNA sequences.
Journal ArticleDOI
USP9X, a Putative Tumor Suppressor Gene, Exhibits Frameshift Mutations in Colorectal Cancers
TL;DR: The results of these studies suggest that alteration of USP9X may be tumor typedependent in cancers, however, somatic inactivating mutation status of USp9X remains undetermined in most carcinomas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Somatic Mutations and Intratumoral Heterogeneity of Cancer-Related Genes NLK, YY1 and PA2G4 in Gastric and Colorectal Cancers.
TL;DR: The results suggest that frameshift mutations of NLK, YY1 and PA2G4 along with the ITH might contribute to MSI-H cancer pathogenesis.
