MSI is a hallmark of Lynch syndrome (hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer) and is also commonly observed in several solid tumors, including colorectal, endometrial, and gastric cancers. Tumors exhibiting MSI-high (MSI-H) status have distinct biological and clinical characteristics, including increased neoantigen load and enhanced response to immune checkpoint inhibitors, making MSI testing an important tool in cancer research and therapeutic decision-making.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"877\" data-end=\"1465\">The EntroGen MSI Detection Kit is a qPCR-based assay designed to detect and characterize MSI across five mononucleotide repeat regions: BAT-25 (KIT), BAT-26 (MSH2), NR-21 (SLC7A8), NR-27 (BIRC3), and MONO-27 (MAP4K3). The assay employs high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis to evaluate changes in DNA melting profiles caused by alterations in microsatellite length\u2014an indicator of MSI. By incorporating wildtype sequence blockers, the assay selectively suppresses normal sequence amplification, enhancing sensitivity for detecting MSI-induced shifts within tumor DNA.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1467\" data-end=\"1777\">This five-reaction assay includes target-specific primer sets and MSI\/MSS controls for reliable baseline correction across HRM-enabled thermal cyclers. The method eliminates the need for capillary electrophoresis.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1779\" data-end=\"2115\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">The EntroGen MSI Detection Kit is compatible with a wide range of HRM-enabled real-time PCR instruments.
