| Research Abstract |
Defect in the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) system evokes a microsatellite instability (MSI) phenotype and Multi-drug resistant phenotype including 5-FU and its derivertives. Recent accumulating evidences in the tumor suggest that establishment of chemotherapuetic regimen specified for the MMR-deficient tumor may be possible. Establishment of easy procedure for determining MSI tumor and search the hypersensitive anticancer agent to MMR-deficient tumor may be urgent. In this study, we mainly investigated following two categories :
1.Studies using molecular genetic marker
Genomic instability such as MSI, LOH, and EMAST using the specific locus markers was investigated in 70 sporadic colorectal cancer. Eleven MSI tumors (4 MSI-H and 7 MSI-L) and 39 EMAST-positive tumors were found. All MSI tumors showed EMAST. However, pattern of MSI-H was differ from a typical pattern of EMAST, indicate that generative mechanism of the MSI -and EMAST tumors is different. Since requency of LOH in EMAST tumors is relatively higher than EMAST-negative tumors, EMAST is a part of CIN tumor.
2.Mode of action of the hypersensitive drugs to MMR-deflcient human colorectal carcinoma cell lines. MMR proteins prevent DNA double-strand breaks induced by DNA polymerase inhibitors.
