Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We performed the prospective study of differential endoscopic features of sessile serrated adenomas in the colorectum and concluded that the presence of mucus on the lesions may be a practicable finding for the differential diagnosis of sessile serrated adenoma/polyps (SSA/Ps) and hyperplastic polyps. Our molecular analysis suggested that distinct molecular features were observed between proximal and distal serrated polyps with hyperplastic crypt pattern and that proximal microvesicular hyperplastic polyps (MVHPs) may develop more frequently through SSA/Ps to CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) cancers than dist al MVHPs. We performed methylated CpG island amplification microarrays in three paired proximal MVHPs and SSA/Ps with/without cytological dysplasia and found new candidate genes associated with the serrated pathway.
