2021年4月7日 · Errors are targeted, excised, resynthesized and ligated (Cell Res 2008;18:85, The British Association of Gynaecological Pathologists: BAGP MMR IHC Interpretation June 2020 [Accessed 7 April 2021]) MLH1 can also form heterodimers with the PMS1 or MLH3 protein

Clinically, the integrity of MMR is frequently assessed using immunohistochemical (IHC) staining for expression of the four MMR proteins, with loss of MLH1/PMS2 and/or MSH2/MSH6 expression being the most common patterns seen in tumors with MMR deficiency.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) for mismatch repair (MMR) proteins is used to identify MMR status: being diffusely positive (intact/retained nuclear staining) or showing loss of nuclear tumour staining (MMR protein deficient).

In CRC, deficient DNA MMR system (dMMR) is the only predictive, prognostic and diagnostic biomarker. IHC MMR testing is performed with MLH1, MSH2, PMS2 and MSH6 antibodies. Any tumor nuclear staining represents proficient (p)MMR, while absent staining is abnormal (dMMR). ... MLH-1: VENTANA anti-MLH-1 (M1) mouse monoclonal primary antibody ...

2022年8月31日 · We describe a case of false loss of MMR IHC in a patient with metastatic CRC, caused by IHC interference because of a rare benign germline polymorphism in MLH1 with loss of heterozygosity (LOH). Further investigation identified a series of systematic false loss of MLH1 IHC in a series of clinical cases because of MMR IHC interference.

Loss of MLH-1 expression—usually accompanied by loss of PMS-2 expression—within tumours is the most commonly encountered abnormality on MMR protein IHC. This can indicate the presence of a germline MLH-1 mutation but much more commonly occurs due to somatic MLH-1 inactivation associated with hypermethylation of its promoter sequence.

Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was performed on 2 µm whole slides sections using primary antibodies for MLH1 (Clone: M1, Roche [Basel, Switzerland], RTU), PMS2 (Clone: EP51, Agilent Technologies [Santa Clara, CA, USA], RTU), MSH2 (Clone: G219-1129, Roche [Basel, Switzerland], RTU) and MSH6 (Clone: EP49, Leica Biosystems [Newcastle, UK ...

2020年1月1日 · Immunohistochemistry (IHC) for DNA mismatch repair proteins MLH1, PMS2, MSH2, and MSH6 is used for microsatellite instability (MSI) screening in colorectal carcinoma (CRC) and endometrial carcinoma (EC). Loss of PMS2, with retained MLH1 staining occurs in germline mutations of PMS2 gene, and is an indication for genetic testing.

Immunohistochemical testing for MLH1/MSH2 expression provides useful prognostic information for the management of stage II and III colorectal cancer patients. View all available purchase options and get full access to this article.
