Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer syndrome (HNPCC syndrome; also called Lynch syndrome) is one of the most common cancer predisposition syndromes. Most cases of cancer associated with this syndrome are due to the inheritance of germline mutations in genes that encode proteins required for DNA mismatch repair; defects in these proteins allow mutations to accumulate more rapidly in the DNA and influence the rate of cancer development. Recent studies indicate that the reactivation of the activity of telomerase, an enzyme involved in the synthesis of chromosomal ends, in somatic cells may play a role in carcinogenesis. In this study, we evaluated the expression of telomerase in normal and cancerous colorectal tissue specimens from HNPCC and non-HNPCC patients.
