Very few data are reported in the literature on the association between elevated
microsatellite alterations at selected tetranucleotide repeats (EMAST) and prognosis in …

Microsatellite instability (MSI) is associated with better prognosis in colorectal cancer (CRC).
Elevated microsatellite alterations at selected tetranucleotides (EMAST) is a less …

Purpose To determine the frequency and prognostic value of elevated microsatellite
alterations at selected tetranucleotide repeats (EMAST) in metastatic colorectal cancer …

Background Elevated microsatellite alterations at selected tetranucleotides (EMAST) is a
poorly investigated form of microsatellite instability (MSI) in colorectal cancer (CRC) …

BACKGROUND AND METHODS: We have reviewed and pooled data from published
studies to evaluate the relationship between microsatellite instability (MSI) and colorectal …

Colorectal cancer cells frequently have low levels of microsatellite instability (MSI-L) and
elevated microsatellite alterations at selected tetranucleotide repeats (EMAST), but little is …

The aim of our study was to assess the relationship between microsatellite instability (MSI)
and the clinical outcome in metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) patients treated with …

Microsatellite instability (MSI) status is a good prognostic factor for colorectal cancer (CRC),
but its predictive value for chemosensitivity remains controversial. We recently performed a …

Objectives: Microsatellite instability (MSI)–a form of pervasive erratic expansion of
microsatellites–can be identified in 15− 20% of all patients with sporadic colorectal cancer …

Purpose Microsatellite instability in colorectal cancer (CRC) and its long-term outcomes
remains poorly studied in Asians. We investigate the prognostic significance of microsatellite …
