Abstract

Microsatellite instability is a genetic phenomenon characterized by changes in the repetition of nucleotide sequences known as microsatellites. This instability may occur due to defects in DNA repair genes, such as the MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 and PMS2 genes. Chronic inflammation has been linked to the development of colorectal cancer. Microsatellite instability genes are involved in regulating the inflammatory response and may influence tumor progression. Studies have shown that the presence of microsatellite instability in colorectal tumors is related to a greater infiltration of immune cells, such as T lymphocytes, macrophages and neutrophils, which can modulate the inflammatory response in the tumor microenvironment. Oxidative stress is characterized by the imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species and the body’s antioxidant capacity and plays an important role in carcinogenesis. Microsatellite instability genes can influence the response to oxidative stress, affecting the ability of tumor cells to deal with oxidative damage and promoting cell survival. The objective of this work is to understand the genes involved in microsatellite instability in colorectal cancer and how they contribute to the development of the disease, relating it to inflammatory processes and oxidative stress in tumor cells. It is justified by the need to understand the interconnections between microsatellite instability, inflammation and oxidative stress in patients with colorectal cancer.
