Test Details:
The MSI PCR test is a diagnostic tool used to detect microsatellite instability (MSI) in cancer cells. Microsatellites are short repeating sequences of DNA that are prone to errors during DNA replication. MSI occurs when there are errors in the replication of microsatellites, leading to changes in the length of these sequences. MSI is commonly found in certain types of cancer, such as colorectal cancer, endometrial cancer, and gastric cancer. It is associated with defects in DNA mismatch repair genes, which are responsible for correcting errors that occur during DNA replication.
The MSI PCR test involves amplifying specific microsatellite regions of the DNA using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The amplified DNA fragments are then analyzed to determine if there are any differences in the length of the microsatellite sequences compared to normal tissue. If there are differences in length, it indicates microsatellite instability and suggests the presence of a DNA mismatch repair deficiency.
The MSI PCR test is important in the diagnosis and management of certain types of cancer. It can help identify patients who may benefit from targeted therapies, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors, which have shown to be effective in treating MSI-high tumors. Additionally, the test can also provide prognostic information and guide treatment decisions for patients with MSI-positive tumors.
