High prevalence of sessile serrated adenomas with BRAF mutations: A prospective study of patients undergoing colonoscopy (2006)

Spring, K. J., Zhao, Z. Z., Karamatic, R., Walsh, M. D., Whitehall, V. L. J., Pike, T., ...

Background & Aims: Sporadic colorectal cancers with a high degree of microsatellite instability are a clinically distinct subgroup with a high incidence of BRAF mutation and are widely considered to...

Immunohistochemistry versus microsatellite instability testing in phenotyping colorectal tumors (2002)

Lindor, N. M., Burgart, L. J., Leontovich, O., Goldberg, R. M., Cunningham, J. M., Sargent, D. J., ...

Purpose: To compare microsatellite instability (MSI) testing with immunohistochemical (IHC) detection of hMLH1 and hMSH2 in colorectal cancer. Patients and Methods: Colorectal cancers from 1, 144...

HPP1: A transmembrane protein-encoding gene commonly methylated in colorectal polyps and cancers (2001)

Young, J. P., Biden, K. G., Simms, L. A., Huggard, P.R., Karamatic, R., Eyre, H. J., ...

Adenomas are the precursors of most colorectal cancers. Hyperplastic polyps have been linked to the subset of colorectal cancers showing DNA microsatellite instability, but little is known of their...

Methylation of O-6-methylguanine DNA methyltransferase characterizes a subset of colorectal cancer with low-level DNA microsatellite instability (2001)

Whitehall, V. L. J., Walsh, M. D., Young, J., Leggett, B. A., Jass, J. R.

The significance of low-level DNA microsatellite instability (MSI-L) is not well understood. K-ras mutation is associated with MSI-L colorectal cancer and with the silencing of the DNA repair gene...

Altered mucin expression in the gastrointestinal tract: a review (2001)

Jass, J. R., Walsh, M. D.

Early studies of changes in mucin expression in disorders of the gastrointestinal tract focused on alterations in the carbohydrate chain. This review briefly considers the various mechanisms by which...

Mucin core protein expression in colorectal cancers with high levels of microsatellite instability indicates a novel pathway of morphogenesis (2000)

Biemer-Huttmann, A. E., Walsh, M. D., McGuckin, M. A., Simms, L. A., Young, J., Leggett, B. A., ...

Particular mucinous phenotypes have been associated with serrated epithelial polyps of the colon. These polyps also show a high frequency of DNA instability. The aim of this study was to examine the...

DNA microsatellite instability and mismatch repair protein loss in adenomas presenting in hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (2000)

Iino, H., Simms, L., Young, J. P., Arnold, J., Winship, I. M., Webb, S. I., ...

Background and aim-Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), as its name implies, is associated with few adenomas, and the early evolution of colorectal neoplasia is poorly understood. In...

Adenocarcinoma of colon differentiating as dome epithelium of gut-associated lymphoid tissue (2000)

Jass, J. R., Constable, L., Sutherland, R., Winterford, CM, Walsh, M., Young, J. P., ...

Aims: An early adenocarcinoma of the ascending colon was confined to a mass of gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT). The first description of an adenocarcinoma of colon differentiating as dome...

Neoplastic progression occurs through mutator pathways in hyperplastic polyposis of the colorectum (2000)

Jass, J. R., Iino, H., Ruszkiewicz, A., Painter, D., Solomon, M. J., Koorey, D. J., ...

Aim-Colorectal cancer has been described in association with hyperplastic polyposis but the mechanism underlying this observation is unknown. The aim of this study was to characterise foci of...

Characterisation of a subtype of colorectal cancer combining features of the suppressor and mild mutator pathways (1999)

Jass, J. R., Biden, K. G., Cummings, M. C., Simms, L. A., Walsh, M., Schoch, E., ...

Background-10% of sporadic colorectal cancers are characterised by a low level of microsatellite instability (MSI-L). These are not thought to differ substantially from microsatellite-stable (MSS)...
