Clinicopathological and survival significance of BAT-25 and BAT-26 instability in breast cancer among Senegalese patients

In some tumors, defects in mismatch repair enzymes lead to errors in the replication of simple nucleotide repeat segments. This condition is commonly known as microsatellite instability (MSI) because of the frequent mutations of microsatellite sequences. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the clinicopathological and survival significance of BAT-25 and BAT-26 instability, in 60 patients with breast cancer....
