As an attempt to explore whether the expression levels of MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 may play a role, we used immunohistochemistry to study 42 ECs and 35 CRCs from patients carrying the same predisposing mutations. Among MSH2 mutation carriers, MLH1 was expressed in both tumor types, whereas MSH2 and, in many cases, also MSH6, were absent. Remarkably, among MLH1 mutation carriers, 54% of ECs (21 of 39), but none of the CRCs (0 of 32), lacked the MSH2 and/or MSH6 protein in addition to lacking MLH1 protein expression. These results demonstrate a marked difference between hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer-related CRCs and ECs and suggest that the development of the latter tumors is selectively associated with the MSH2/MSH6 protein complex deficiency."xsd:string |
