Abstract:
Objective To investigate the role of microsatellite instability(MSI) in the carcinogenesis and development of gastric cancer (GC). Methods MSI was examined in 36 gastric cancer specimens obtained endoscopically and during surgery and in 30 intestinal metaplasia specimens using PCR SSCP methods. Results MSI was detected in 15 of 36 GC and 9 of 30 intestinal metaplasia specimens at one or more loci. MSI was positive in all three cases of early GC. The incidence of MSI in well differenciated GC was significantly higher than that in poorly differentiated GC (66.7% vs 26.3%, P
