Hypoxia-induced enrichment and mutagenesis of cells that have lost DNA mismatch repair

Loss of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) increases the risk of spontaneous mutations. We sought to determine whether there was an interaction between hypoxia and MMR deficiency that might contribute to the phenomenon of tumor progression. Human colon carcinoma HCT116+ch2 (MMR-deficient) and HCT116+ch3 (MMR...

Zusammenfassung:Loss of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) increases the risk of spontaneous mutations. We sought to determine whether there was an interaction between hypoxia and MMR deficiency that might contribute to the phenomenon of tumor progression. Human colon carcinoma HCT116+ch2 (MMR-deficient) and HCT116+ch3 (MMR-proficient) sublines were exposed for varying periods of time to an environment of
