abstract:BACKGROUND:CAT25 (T25mononucleotide repeat of the Caspase 2 gene), is a promising DNA marker for detecting microsatellite instability (MSI) in colorectal cancer. CAT25 has the potential to be incorporated into the Bethesda panel, a commonly used panel of DNA microsatellites, or replace it in its entirety. We aimed to d...
