Microsatellite instability (MSI) is characterized by high degree of polymorphism in microsatellite lengths due to deficiency in mismatch repair (MMR) system. MSI is associated with several tumor types and its status can be considered as an important ...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether quantitative radiomics features extracted from computed tomography (CT) can predict microsatellite instability (MSI) status in an Asian cohort of patients with stage Ⅱ colorectal cancer (CRC).
Microsatellite instability determines whether patients with gastrointestinal cancer respond exceptionally well to immunotherapy. However, in clinical practice, not every patient is tested for MSI, because this requires additional genetic or immunohis...
BACKGROUND: Recent studies have shown that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a crucial role in the induction of cancer through epigenetic regulation, transcriptional regulation, post-transcriptional regulation and other aspects, thus participating ...
