BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to elucidate genetic alterations of sporadic colorectal cancers with Microsatellite instability (MSI). METHODS: One hundred and ten patients with sporadic colorectal cancer were examined. The MSI was assessed using eight microsatellite markers. In addition, mutation analysis was performed for Transforming growth-beta type II receptor (TGF beta R II), bcl-2 associated X protein (BAX), Insulin-like growth factor II receptor (IGF II R), human MutS homolog 3 (hMSH3), human MutS homolog 6 (hMSH6), human MutS homolog 2 (hMSH2), and human MutL homolog 1 (hMLH1) genes. Tumors with three or more positive loci have been determined to be MSI-H (high-frequency MSI), tumors with one or two positive loci were designated as MSI-L (low-frequency MSI) and tumors lacking apparent instability were designated as MSS (microsatellite stable). RESULTS: There were 11 cases with MSI-H (MSI-H group) and 99 cases with MSI-L/MSS (MSI-L/MSS group). The frequency of cases with multiple colorectal cancer in the MSI-H group was significantly higher than that of MSI-L and MSS group (81.8% vs. 34.3%, p = 0.0022). The frequency of cases with multiple cancers increased as the number of locus with microsatellite instability increased. Among 11 tumors with MSI-H, 7 indicated mutation of the TGF beta R II (63.6%), whereas no tumor had a mutation of the TGF beta R II among 20 tumors with MSI-L (p = 0.0001). Regarding the BAX, hMSH3, hMSH6 gene, the same trend was obtained as the TGF beta R II gene (18.2% vs. 0%, p = 0.0487, 36.4% vs. 0%, p = 0.0039, 27.3% vs. 0%, p = 0.0140, respectively). Only two cases indicated a somatic point mutation of the hMSH2 gene. CONCLUSIONS: The multiple occurrence of the colorectal carcinoma may be related to MSI-H as well as the mutation of genes possessing repetitive mononucleotide tracts. Furthermore, we recommend strict follow-up in sporadic colorectal patients that indicate MSI-H. 相似文献

Mutations in the hMVSH3 gene in sporadic colon cancer with microsatellite instability (MSI) were investigated, since several mismatch repair genes were known to be mutated in cancers with MSI, but only deletions in the (A)8 region in the hMSH3 gene have been reported. We also analyzed the relationships between hMSH3 mutations and the spectrum of MSI. We screened MSI in 79 sporadic colon cancer samples using mono- and dinucleotide repeat markers and the samples with MSI were further analyzed for tri- and tetranucleotide repeat instability and mutations in the hMSH3 gene by polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) analysis. Five (6%) out of 79 tumors were MSI-H and 15 (19%) were MSI-L. Two MSI-H tumors showed insertion in the (C)8 region in the hMSH6 gene and one tumor showed insertion and deletion in the (A)8 region in the hMSH3 gene, and two of the three above tumors showed MSI in tri-and tetranucleotide repeats. One MSI-L tumor showed somatic alteration in a 9-bp repeat sequence in hMSH3. No frameshift mutations were found in the (A)7 and (A)6 regions in hMSH3. Thus, we confirmed that the (A)8 region in hMSH3 is a hot spot and mutations in the (A)7 and (A)6 regions in hMSH3 are not common. The hMSH3 mutation may enhance genomic instability in some colorectal cancers. 相似文献

The incidences of microsatellite instability (MSI) and underlying DNA mismatch repair (MMR) defects in pancreatic carcinogenesis have not been well established. We analyzed 100 sporadic and 3 hereditary pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas for MSI, and high-frequency MSI (MSI-H) and low-frequency MSI (MSI-L) tumors were further analyzed for frameshift mutations of possible target genes and for promoter methylation and mutation of DNA MMR genes, including hMLH1, hMSH2, hMSH3, and hMSH6 genes. Among the 100 sporadic tumors, 13 (13%) were MSI-H, 13 (13%) were MSI-L, and 74 (74%) were microsatellite stable (MSS) tumors. All of the three hereditary tumors from hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) patients were MSI-H. MSI-H tumors were significantly associated with poor differentiation and the presence of wild-type K-RAS and p53 genes. Patients with MSI-H tumors had a significantly longer overall survival time than did those with MSI-L or MSS tumors (P = 0.0057). Frameshift mutations of hMSH3, hMLH3, BRCA-2, TGF-beta type II receptor, and BAX genes were detected in MSI-H tumors. Hypermethylation of the hMLH1 promoter was observed in 6 (46%) of the 13 sporadic MSI-H tumors but not in any of the 3 hereditary MSI-H tumors or 13 MSI-L tumors. All of the 3 HNPCC cases had germ-line hMLH1 mutation accompanied by loss of heterogeneity or other mutation in the tumor. Our results suggest that pancreatic carcinomas with MSI-H represent a distinctive oncogenic pathway because they exhibit peculiar clinical, pathological, and molecular characteristics. Our results also suggest the principal involvement of epigenetic or genetic inactivation of the hMLH1 gene in the pathogenesis of pancreatic carcinoma with MSI-H. 相似文献

Most hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is due to germline mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes. Tumors arising as a result of these mutations display instability in microsatellites, which are short tandem repeats of DNA that are distributed throughout the genome. Although a subset of sporadic colorectal carcinomas also have microsatellite instability (MSI), the phenotype is a useful screening test in identifying patients with HNPCC caused by mutations in mismatch repair (MMR) genes. Studies have shown that some microsatellite markers are more efficient than others in identifying tumors with MSI. Furthermore, the frequency of instability can be assessed by categorizing patients into high (MSI-H, >/= 30-40% positive markers), low (MSI-L), and microsatellite stable (MSS) groups. Using a panel of 28 microsatellite markers, tumor and normal DNA from 10 HNPCC patients was used to identify the five most efficient markers for detecting MSI (BAT26, D2S123, FGA, D18S35, and TP53-DI). Each of the five markers detected MSI in 80-100% of the cases examined. We then expanded the sample size to 17 tumors from HNPCC patients. Each case had evidence for a mutation in either hMSH2 or hMLH1. We compared the efficiency of our panel of five best markers with another panel of five markers (BAT25, BAT26, D2S123, D17S250, and D5S346) identified as being efficient markers for detection of MSI at a recent NCI workshop. Our five selected markers were more efficient (85% vs. 79%) in detecting MSI. However, using either panel, 100% of the cases fell into the MSI-H category and the probability of misclassifying an MSI-H case as MSI-L is very low (0.002-0.008). We also examined four cases meeting the Amsterdam criteria for HNPCC, but with no evidence for mutation in either the hMSH2 or hMLH1 gene. With our panel, three were classified as MSI-H, while only two were classified as such with the NCI reference panel. The probability of misclassifying an MSI-L case as an MSI-H, using a panel of five markers is high (0.263). 相似文献

Assessment of markers for the identification of microsatellite instability phenotype in gastric neoplasms 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
We tested three mononucleotide, 45 dinucleotide, and five tetranucleotide repeats in 30 gastric adenomas and 30 gastric carcinomas for microsatellite instability (MSI) in order to evaluate which microsatellites might indicate the MSI status in gastric neoplasms. Along with the increase in tested markers, the proportion of low-frequency MSI (MSI-L) tumors increased. On immunohistochemistry, MSI-L gastric neoplasms did not show any alteration in hMLH1 or hMSH2 protein expression, while most of the high-frequency MSI (MSI-H) tumors did show alterations in the above mismatch repair proteins. The above findings suggested that MSI-L tumors cannot be distinguished from microsatellite stable tumors. Two mononucleotides, BAT25 and BAT26, were sufficient for the screening of MSI. An additional three dinucleotides, D17S786, D6S105 and D19S188, were also highly sensitive and specific in identifying MSI phenotype tumors. 相似文献

Microsatellite instability (MSI) is a hallmark of mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency. High levels of MSI at mononucleotide and dinucleotide repeats in colorectal cancer (CRC) are attributed to inactivation of the MMR genes, hMLH1 and hMSH2. CRC with low levels of MSI (MSI-L) exists; however, its molecular basis is unclear. There is another type of MSI--elevated microsatellite alterations at selected tetranucleotide repeats (EMAST)--where loci containing [AAAG](n) or [ATAG](n) repeats are unstable. EMAST is frequent in non-CRCs; however, the incidence of EMAST and its cause in CRC is not known. Here, we report that MutS homologue 3 (MSH3) knockdown or MSH3-deficient cells exhibit the EMAST phenotype and low levels of mutations at dinucleotide repeats. About 60% of 117 sporadic CRC cases exhibit EMAST. All of the cases defined as MSI-H (16 cases) exhibited high levels of EMAST. Among 101 non-MSI-H cases, all 19 cases of MSI-L and 35 of 82 cases of MSS exhibited EMAST. Although non-MSI-H CRC tissues contained MSH3-negative tumor cells ranging from 2% to 50% of the total tumor cell population, the tissues exhibiting EMAST contained more MSH3-negative cells (average, 31.5%) than did the tissues not exhibiting EMAST (8.4%). Taken together, our results support the concept that MSH3 deficiency causes EMAST or EMAST with low levels of MSI at loci with dinucleotide repeats in CRC. 相似文献

Two microsatellite instability (MSI) phenotypes have been described in colorectal cancer (CRC): MSI-H (instability at >30% of the loci examined) and MSI-L (MSI at 1-30% of the loci examined). The MSI-H phenotype, observed in both hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer-associated CRC and approximately 15% of sporadic CRC, generally results from mutational or epigenetic inactivation of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes hMSH2 or hMLH1. The genetic basis for the MSI-L phenotype, however, is unknown. Several other proteins, including hMSH3 and hMSH6, also participate in DNA MMR. Inactivating mutations of MSH6 in yeast and human tumor cell lines are associated with an impaired ability to repair single-base mispairs and small insertion-deletion loops but not large insertion-deletion loops. This suggests that hMSH6 mutations are more likely to be associated with a MSI-L phenotype than a MSI-H phenotype in CRC. To explore this possibility, we screened tumors from 41 patients with MSI-L CRC for hMSH6 mutations with conformation-sensitive gel electrophoresis (CSGE) and for hMSH6 protein expression by immunohistochemistry. Alterations found with CSGE were confirmed by DNA sequencing of normal and tumor tissue. One somatic (Asp389Asn) and 15 germ-line changes were found. Of the 15 germ-line changes, 9 were found in an intron (none involving splice junctions), and 6 were found in an exon (Gly39Glu, Leu395Val, and 4 silent alterations). Immunohistochemical staining for hMSH6 performed on 34 of the 41 tumors revealed strong nuclear hMSH6 expression in all of the cases. Overall, our results suggest that hMSH6 mutations do not play a major role in the development of sporadic CRC with a MSI-L phenotype. 相似文献

hMLH1 and hMSH2 expression in human hepatocellular carcinoma 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

The role of microsatellite instability (MSI) in the pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is incompletely defined. Although high-frequency MSI (MSI-H) is infrequently seen in HCC, some studies have suggested a role for MSI in HCC development. While MSI has been clearly defined for a subset of tumors, in particular colorectal, gastric and endometrial cancers, generally accepted criteria have not been developed for other tumors. Colorectal cancers (CRC) are classified as MSI-H if >30-40% of >5 microsatellite loci analyzed show instability. The MSI-H phenotype is associated with defective DNA mismatch repair (MMR) and is observed in the majority of tumors from patients with hereditary non-polyposis colon cancer (HNPCC) and also in 15% of sporadic CRCs. Inactivating mutations of the hMLH1 or hMSH2 genes lead to defects in MMR in HNPCC. In sporadic CRCs, MMR is usually due to hypermethylation of the hMLH-1 promoter. The role of defective MMR in hepatocellular carcinogenesis is controversial. Immunohistochemistry for hMLH1 and hMSH2 reliably indicates hMLH1 or hMSH2 loss in MSI-H CRC tumors. To investigate the role of defective MMR in HCC carcinogenesis, we performed immunohistochemistry for hMLH1 and hMSH2 on 36 HCCs. BAT26, a microsatellite marker that reliably predicts MSI-H was also examined. All 36 of the tumors stained positively for both hMLH1 and hMSH2, strongly suggesting an absence of either inactivating mutations of hMLH1 and hMSH2 or promoter hypermethylation of hMLH1. None of the tumors showed MSI at the BAT26 locus. These findings suggest that defective MMR does not contribute significantly to hepatocellular carcinogenesis. 相似文献

Sporadic colorectal adenocarcinomas with high-frequency microsatellite instability 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
BACKGROUND: Widespread microsatellite instability (MSI) occurs in nearly 15% of sporadic colorectal cancers. Large bowel carcinomas with high-frequency MSI (MSI-H) (instability at > or = 30% of microsatellite loci) are believed to display distinctive pathologic features and to behave less aggressively than microsatellite-stable (MSS) tumors and carcinomas with low-frequency MSI (MSI-L) (instability at < 30% of microsatellite loci). The aim of the current study was to accurately define the clinicopathologic and biologic features of MSI-H sporadic colorectal carcinomas. METHODS: MSI status was evaluated in 216 large bowel adenocarcinomas using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and 6 microsatellite markers. Tumors that showed instability with at least two microsatellite markers were classified as MSI-H, whereas the other tumors were classified as MSI-L (instability at one locus) or MSS (no instability). Expression of p53, hMLH1, and hMSH2 gene products was determined by immunohistochemistry, and DNA ploidy pattern was determined by flow cytometry. The prognostic significance of MSI status was assessed by univariate and multivariate survival analyses. RESULTS: The significantly different pathologic features of MSI-H carcinomas were proximal location; large size; mucinous and medullary histotype; poor differentiation; expanding pattern of growth; more frequent Crohn-like conspicuous lymphoid reaction; and low incidence of extramural vein invasion. Most MSI-H tumors were DNA diploid (33 of 40 tumors; 82.5%) and p53 negative (34 of 44 tumors; 77.3%). Conversely, DNA aneuploidy and p53 overexpression were observed in 82.3% (130 of 158 tumors; P < 0.0001) and 54.1% (93 of 172 tumors; P = 0.0002) of MSI-L/MSS tumors, respectively. Loss of hMLH1 or hMSH2 expression was detected in a high fraction of MSI-H carcinomas (86. 0%). Patients with MSI-H tumors showed a better clinical outcome than patients with MSI-L/MSS tumors (P = 0.0017). Furthermore, in multivariate analysis that included conventional clinicopathologic parameters, MSI status, and p53 expression as covariates, MSI status was a significant independent prognostic indicator of disease specific survival. CONCLUSIONS: Assessment of MSI status is an essential step in the genetic characterization of large bowel carcinomas and identifies a subset of tumors with distinct clinical, pathologic, and biologic features. 相似文献

Microsatellite instability (MSI) testing is useful for identifying patients with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer and detecting sporadic colorectal cancer that develops through replication error pathways. A pentaplex panel is recommended by the National Cancer Institute for MSI testing, but simplified mononucleotide panels and immunohistochemistry of mismatch repair proteins are widely employed for convenience. This study was to evaluate the MSI status of colorectal cancer in Korean patients. This study included 1,435 patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma subjected to surgical resection. The pentaplex Bethesda panel was used for MSI testing. Seventy nine (5.5?%) carcinomas were classified as MSI-high (MSI-H) and 95 (6.6?%) as MSI-low (MSI-L). BAT-26 and BAT-25 were unstable in 73 and 75 of 79 MSI-H carcinomas, respectively. With the panel comprising these 2 mononucleotide markers, 72 carcinomas were diagnosed as MSI-H, compared to the Bethesda panel data (72/79, 91.1?%). In contrast, BAT-26 or BAT-25 were unstable in only 7 (7.4?%) of the 95 MSI-L tumors. In the panel with 2 dinucleotide markers, D17250 linked to p53 and D2S123 to hMSH2, detection rates were 89.9?% (71/79) for MSI-H and 80.0?% (76/95) for MSI-L carcinomas, compared to the Bethesda panel. Moreover, we compared the frequency of MSI tumor in our patients with those reported previously from Western countries. In conclusion, the frequency of MSI-H appears lower in colorectal cancer patients in Korea. A simplified panel for MSI testing with BAT-26 and BAT-25 seems not effective for the accurate evaluation of MSI status, particularly in MSI-L colorectal carcinomas, in our patients. 相似文献

To identify additional genes targeted for microsatellite instability (MSI), we search for human genes which contain mononucleotide repeats in their coding region, selected 7 genes (RAD50, DNA-PKcs, FLASH, Apaf-1, XPG, CtIP, and MLSN1), and analyzed frameshift mutations in them. Here we report that 60% (3 out of 5) of human colorectal cancer cell lines exhibiting a high frequency of MSI (MSI-H) and 46% (6 out of 13) of MSI-H primary colorectal tumors had mutations in the (A)9 repeat of RAD50 recombinational repair gene. In contrast, no frameshift mutations were found in any of the 5 MSI-negative colorectal cancer cell lines, 8 colorectal tumors exhibiting a low frequency of MSI (MSI-L), or 28 MSI-negative colorectal tumors. No mutations were found in the mononucleotide repeats of 6 other genes, even in MSI-H cancers. These results suggest that RAD50 frameshift mutations may play a role in the tumorigenesis of MSI-H colorectal cancers. 相似文献

Background: Early onset sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC) is a biologically and clinically distinct entity hypothesized to exhibit differences in histological features and microsatellite instability (MSI) as compared to typical onset CRC. This study compared the MSI status, mismatch repair enzyme deficiency and clinicopathological features of early onset (aged 45 years) with controls (>45 years). Materials and Methods: A total of 30 cases and 30 controls were analyzed for MSI status using the Bethesda marker panel. Using antibodies against hMLH1, hMSH2 and hMSH6, mismatch repair protein expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry. Molecular characteristics were correlated with clinicopathological features. Results: The early onset sporadic CRCs were significantly more poorly differentiated tumors, with higher N2 nodal involvement and greater frequency of signet ring phenotype than the typical onset cases. MSI was observed in 18/30 cases, with 12/18 designated as MSI-high (MSI-H) and 6/18 designated as MSI-low (MSI-L). In the control group, 14 patients exhibited MSI, with 7 MSI-H and 7 MSI-L. MSI tumors in both cases and controls exhibited loss of hMLH1, hMSH2 and hMSH6. MSS tumors did not exhibit loss of expression of MMR proteins, except hMLH1 protein in 3 controls. No statistically significant difference was noted in MSI status or expression of MMR proteins in cases versus controls. Conclusions: Microsatellite status is comparable between early and typical onset sporadic CRC patients in Pakistan suggesting that differences in clinicopathological features between these two subsets are attributable to other molecular mechanisms. 相似文献

目的 高频度微卫星不稳定性被认定为DNA错配修复缺陷的标志,但既往研究发现一个显著矛盾,即在高频度微卫星不稳定结直肠癌中,p53突变率较一般结直肠癌低.研究旨在确认该矛盾的存在并试图阐明其机制.方法 对180例散发结直肠癌采用高分辨率荧光标记微卫星分析法检测微卫星位点稳定性,PCR扩增直接测序检测p53突变.结果 微卫星不稳定性呈现修饰型和跳跃型两种变化.低频度微卫星不稳定性均呈现修饰型而无跳跃型变化;高频度微卫星不稳定性均检出了跳跃型变化,一部分也并存修饰型变化.微卫星不稳定与肿瘤部位及分化程度明显相关,p53突变与肿瘤分化明显相关.高频度微卫星不稳定肿瘤未检出p53突变,而低频度微卫星不稳定肿瘤p53突变率较高.结论 低频度微卫星不稳定性呈现的修饰型微卫星位点长度变化可能是DNA错配修复缺陷的表型;此表型与提高的碱基置换突变率有关.单纯DNA错配修复缺陷可能不足以导致微卫星不稳定性的跳跃型变化,高频度微卫星不稳定的真正原因仍有待阐明. 相似文献

In contrast, no frameshift mutations were found in any of the 5 MSI-negative colorectal cancer cell lines, 8 colorectal tumors exhibiting a low frequency of MSI (MSI-L), or 28 MSI-negative colorectal tumors. No mutations were found in the mononucleotide repeats of 6 other genes, even in MSI-H cancers. These results suggest that RAD50 frameshift mutations may play a role in the tumorigenesis of MSI-H colorectal cancers. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To compare microsatellite instability (MSI) testing with immunohistochemical (IHC) detection of hMLH1 and hMSH2 in colorectal cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Colorectal cancers from 1,144 patients were assessed for DNA mismatch repair deficiency by two methods: MSI testing and IHC detection of hMLH1 and hMSH2 gene products. High-frequency MSI (MSI-H) was defined as more than 30% instability of at least five markers; low-level MSI (MSI-L) was defined as 1% to 29% of loci unstable. RESULTS: Of 1,144 tumors tested, 818 showed intact expression of hMLH1 and hMSH2. Of these, 680 were microsatellite stable (MSS), 27 were MSI-H, and 111 were MSI-L. In all, 228 tumors showed absence of hMLH1 expression and 98 showed absence of hMSH2 expression: all were MSI-H. CONCLUSION: IHC in colorectal tumors for protein products hMLH1 and hMSH2 provides a rapid, cost-effective, sensitive (92.3%), and extremely specific (100%) method for screening for DNA mismatch repair defects. The predictive value of normal IHC for an MSS/MSI-L phenotype was 96.7%, and the predictive value of abnormal IHC was 100% for an MSI-H phenotype. Testing strategies must take into account acceptability of missing some cases of MSI-H tumors if only IHC is performed. 相似文献

Widespread microsatellite instability (MSI) due to the defective DNA mismatch repair underlies the pathogenesis of the majority of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer and a subset of various sporadic malignant tumors. Using 5 microsatellite markers and the criteria of MSI proposed by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) workshop, we analyzed 205 gastric adenocarcinomas for MSI. Based on the number of markers showing instability per tumor, the tumors were divided into three groups; those with two or more of the five markers displaying instability (high MSI, MSI-H), those with one of five markers displaying instability (low MSI, MSI-L), and those with no instability (microsatellite stable, MSS). Among 205 tumors, 30 (15%) were MSI-H, 15 (7%) were MSI-L, and 160 (78%) were MSS. All of the 30 MSI-H tumors demonstrated instability at BAT26, a sensitive marker for the widespread MSI, while none of the 15 MSI-L tumors did. MSI-H tumors were significantly associated with distal location and well or moderate differentiation, but MSI-L tumors were indistinguishable from MSS tumors. Bax frameshift mutations were detected in 60% of the 30 MSI-H tumors, while not in any of the 15 MSI-L tumors. These results suggest that microsatellite analysis using the criteria proposed by the NCI workshop may be appropriate for gastric cancers because it unveils real differences in genotype and phenotype. 相似文献

Microsatellite instability in colorectal-cancer patients with suspected genetic predisposition 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is a dominantly inherited syndrome linked to DNA-mismatch-repair (MMR) gene defects, which also account for microsatellite instability (MSI) in tumour tissues. Diagnosis is based mainly on family history, according to widely accepted criteria (Amsterdam Criteria: AC). Aim of this work was to assess MSI in colorectal-cancer patients with suspected genetic predisposition, and to verify whether MSI represents a tool to manage MMR gene (hMSH2 and hMLH1) mutation analysis. We investigated 13 microsatellites (including the 5 NCI/ICG-HNPCC markers) in 45 patients with suspected hereditary predisposition (including 16 subjects from HNPCC families fulfilling the AC). We found MSI-H (high frequency of instability, i.e., in > or =30% of the markers) in 85% of the HNPCC patients and in 16% of the non-HNPCC subjects. The 5 NCI/ICG-HNPCC microsatellites proved to be the most effective in detecting MSI, being mononucleotide repeats the most unstable markers. We investigated the association between hMSH2- and hMLH1 gene mutations and MSI. Our results indicate that AC are highly predictive both of tumour instability and of MMR-gene mutations. Therefore, as the most likely mutation carriers, HNPCC subjects might be directly analyzed for gene mutations, while to test for MSI in selected non-HNPCC patients and to further investigate MMR genes in MSI-H cases, appears to be a cost-effective way to identify subjects, other than those from kindred fulfilling AC, who might benefit from genetic testing. 相似文献
