CUI: C0919267
Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE The incidence of germline MMR gene mutations in ovarian cancer is only 2% but other mechanisms of gene inactivation mean that loss of expression of one of the seven main genes (MSH2, MSH3, MSH6, MLH1, MLH3, PMS1 and PMS2) occurs in up to 29% of cases. 24333356 2014
CUI: C0919267
Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Based on recent estimates that 11.7-16.6 % of women with ovarian cancer are BRCA carriers and 2 % are HNPCC carriers, results suggest under-identification of carriers and under-utilization of genetic services by providers and patients. 23677535 2013

Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE We report on an ovarian cancer patient who carries a germline MSH2 c.1A>C variant which alters the translation initiation codon. 21837758 2012
CUI: C0919267
Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Our findings suggest that fewer than 1% of women with ovarian cancer harbour a germline mutation in the HNPCC genes, with overrepresentation of MSH6 mutations. 23047549 2012

Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Ovarian cancer (N = 72) had an lifetime risk of 6.7% (95% CI: 5.3-9.1); risks were higher in women born after the median year of birth (p < 0.008) and in members of MSH2 families (p < 0.006). 18398828 2008
CUI: C0919267
Disease: ovarian neoplasm

0.700 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE MMR-deficient ovarian cancer is frequently associated with loss of expression of MSH2 and MSH6 proteins and clear cell histology. 18469706 2008
CUI: C0919267
Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 Biomarker disease BEFREE Limiting genetic evaluation to women with synchronous endometrial and ovarian cancer who have a family history suggestive of HNPCC may appropriately identify women with Lynch syndrome. 16361634 2005
CUI: C0919267
Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE We describe two women from an HNPCC family carrying an hMSH2 mutation (deletion of exon 6 of this gene) who developed ovarian cancer. 14574006 2001
CUI: C0919267
Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE To clarify the mechanism of acquired CDDP resistance in ovarian cancer, we compared the microsatellite instability (MSI) by the amplification of 10 microsatellite loci and immunohistochemical detection of hMSH2 and hMLH1 expression between the primary resected tumours and the secondary resected residual tumours after 5 or 6 courses of CDDP-based chemotherapy in the 24 cases of ovarian cancer. 11592780 2001
CUI: C0919267
Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE The fact that we found no germline pathologic mutations in hMSH2 and hMLH1 (predominant sites of mutation in HNPCC) in MIN+ OC cases, suggests that the genetic basis of MIN in OC can be different from that in HNPCC; our finding that distinct microsatellite banding patterns largely distinguish sporadic from familial OC, may reflect the involvement of different DNA repair genes in MIN in individual OC cases. 8824498 1996
CUI: C0919267
Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Genetic instability, caused in part by alterations in the hMSH2 gene, may play an important role in the sporadic endometrioid subtype of ovarian tumors. 8550235 1995
CUI: C0919267
Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Amongst the important known susceptibility genes are those dominant genes conferring a high risk of breast and ovarian cancer (BRCA1), colon cancer (hMSH2 and hMLH1), and melanoma (MLM). 7987639 1994
CUI: C0919267
Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 Biomarker disease BEFREE This review discusses recent insights into the roles of the p53 tumor-suppressor gene and growth factors in the development of ovarian cancer and describes the genes implicated in familial ovarian cancer syndromes related to the MSH2 (Lynch II) and BRCA1 (breast and ovarian cancer) genes. 7827156 1994
CUI: C0919267
Disease: ovarian neoplasm
ovarian neoplasm
0.700 Biomarker disease BEFREE The genetic instability observed in the tumor and cell line DNA, together with the germ-line mutation in a mismatch-repair gene, suggest that the MSH2 gene is involved in the onset and/or progression in a subset of ovarian cancer. 7937795 1994
