Organoids and metastatic orthotopic mouse model for mismatch repair-deficient colorectal cancer
BackgroundGenome integrity is essential for the survival of an organism. DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes (e.g., MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2) play a critical role in the DNA damage response pathway for genome integrity maintenance. Germline mutations of MMR genes can lead to Lynch syndrome or constitu...
