Infiltrating lobular breast cancer (ILBC) is the most common special breast cancer subtype.
This review provides a comprehensive description of ILBC characteristics, including …

AIMS: To review the established and emerging techniques in axillary lymph node prediction
and explore their potential impact on clinical practice. To reliably identify patients in whom …

We analyzed 40 pairs of breast normal/cancer tissues for the presence of mitochondrial (mt)
genome instability and nuclear MSI in tumor cells. As mt, markers we used a (CA) n mt …

Sporadic breast carcinomas demonstrate microsatellite instability, reflecting the presence of
DNA mismatch repair‐deficient cells, in about one fourth of cases at the time of diagnosis …

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, but its pathogenesis is still unclear.
Microsatellite instability (MSI) has been identified in breast cancer cells, suggesting an …

Deletion mutations in mitochondrial (mt) DNA (mtDNA) as well as microsatellite instability
(MSI) and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in nuclear DNA (nDNA) exist in human cancer. We …

Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) is the most common bladder tumor. Urine cytology can
identify most high‐grade tumors but sensitivity is lower if one includes lesions of all grades …

Genetic instability has been detected in many types of cancers but poorly investigated in
hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We have studied the incidence of microsatellite instability …

Although the genetic basis for gallbladder carcinogenesis has not been clarified,
considerable evidence has shown that genetic alterations play an important role in the …

Microsatellite markers may provide evidence of faulty DNA mismatch repair (MMR) via the
detection of microsatellite instability (MSI). The choice of microsatellite markers may impact …
