A subgroup of microsatellite stable colorectal cancers has elevated mutation rates and different responses to alkylating and oxidising agents
An early step in the carcinogenesis of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) and some sporadic colorectal cancers (CRCs) is the acquisition of a ‘mutator phenotype’ resulting from defects in DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes, which normally maintain genomic stability. This mutator phenoty...
