Multi-omic colon organoid analysis highlight MSH4 as a marker of Lynch syndrome and microsatellite instability [RNA-sequencing]
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Approximately 15% of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients present with high levels of microsatellite instability (MSI-H), which is driven by defective mismatch repair (dMMR). While about 20% of MSI-H tumors are associated with the hereditary condition, Lynch syndrome (LS), the majority develop through non-hereditary mechanisms. In recent years, the molecular processes underpinning tumor development in LS patients has been debated, with the longstanding view that dMMR is a secondary process in CRC development of LS patients being questioned. Here, we performed the first multi-omic analysis of normal colon organoids developed from LS and healthy patients to address questions regarding the development of dMMR in LS colon epithelial cells from cancer-free individuals.
