pubmed:abstractText |
Mutations in the mismatch repair (MMR) enzymes hMLH1 and hMSH6 are known causes of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer and act by inducing a mutator phenotype characterized by microsatellite instability. The aim of our study was to determine if polymorphisms in the DNA MMR genes hMLH1 and hMSH6 are associated with an increased risk of colorectal polyps, and to evaluate interactions with exposures known to cause DNA damage.
