Cancers exhibit a four-fold higher mutation burden than normal tissues across five organs, driven by individual baseline mutation rate differences.

Having 5 to 10 nonadvanced adenomas significantly increases the risk of advanced colorectal neoplasm, with a 10.1% 5-year incidence, highlighting the need for tailored surveillance.
RO7589831, a WRN inhibitor, shows manageable safety and a 74.2% disease control rate in MSI solid tumors at doses of 150 mg and 600 mg BID.

Cooperative action of two conserved Glu/Asp residues is essential for early ATP hydrolysis in GHKL ATPases, with mutations impairing activity in human disease variants.

DNA double-strand break repair pathway choice is governed by complex mechanisms involving chromatin modifications and key repair factors, with BRCA1-BARD1 and 53BP1 playing antagonistic roles.
Disruption of the BRCA1 coiled-coil domain does not impair suppression of tandem duplications in mouse cells and tumor models, indicating a non-essential role in this process.
- Open access
Circulating tumor DNA-guided therapy in high-risk colon cancer achieved a 2-year relapse-free rate of 88% in ctDNA-negative patients, but did not meet the predefined threshold.
- Open access
Exposure-driven processes may cause accelerated colorectal carcinogenesis, accounting for up to 20% of early-onset and post-colonoscopy CRC cases, challenging current prevention models.
- Open access
Genomic factors influencing mutation susceptibility are largely consistent across 25 human tissues, with chromatin structure and sequence context playing key roles.
- Open access
SPOP mutations cause cancer by shifting a structural equilibrium from autoinhibited to active filament states, leading to abnormal substrate turnover.
