---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
MSH2 inact mut | endometrial adenocarcinoma | sensitive | Baicalein | Preclinical - Cell line xenograft | Actionable | In a preclinical study, Baicalein selectively induced cell death in an endometrial adenocarcinoma cell line with MSH2 inactivation in culture, and induced apoptosis and tumor shrinkage in MSH2-deficient endometrial adenocarcinoma cell line xenograft models (PMID: 27262172). | 27262172 |
MSH2 inact mut | colon cancer | sensitive | Baicalein | Preclinical | Actionable | In a preclinical study, treatment with Baicalein resulted in decreased growth of azoxymethane/dextran sodium sulfate-induced colon tumors in a MSH2-deficient mouse model (PMID: 27262172). | 27262172 |
