FAQ
Why should you book an MSI Study (Microsatellite Instability) IHC test with Sterling Accuris?
Sterling Accuris specialises in providing quick and reliable diagnosis support for hospitals, physicians, and other healthcare facilities across the country. We offer an MSI Study (Microsatellite Instability) IHC test in Dakor with timely reports. This test is performed by our experienced hematopathologists with the utmost care.
What are the four core microsatellite markers assessed in MSI?
The five core markers recommended for testing are MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 and PMS2.
How is microsatellite instability assessed?
Microsatellite instability is done to identify the tumours that result due to mutation in the mismatch repair genes. MSI is detected by comparing the number of nucleotides repeated in the microsatellite marker of normal tissue with that of the tumour tissues of the patient.
What are the ways in which MSI testing can be done?
MSI testing can be done either using fluorescently labelled primers to amplify DNA fragments of the tumour samples. Another way is immunohistochemistry (IHC) in which tissues are labelled with fluorescently labelled antibodies against the mismatch repair proteins in the tissue samples.

Sterling Accuris offers the MSI Study (Micro Satellite Instability) IHC Test in Dakor to screen for Lynch syndrome.
Overview of the MSI Study (Microsatellite Instability) IHC Test
In this test, tumour-specific microsatellite instability is tested. Microsatellites are repeated DNA stretches that are dispersed across the human genome. When alteration in these repetitive DNA segments occurs due to DNA mismatch repair, this results in microsatellite instability. A major contributor to carcinogenesis is impaired DNA mismatch repair, which can occur randomly, or as a result of Lynch syndrome, also called hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). Studies have shown that solid tumours in advanced stages with DNA mismatch repair defects (MSI-H) are more likely to respond to immunotherapies.
The MSI Study (Microsatellite Instability) IHC test can be valuable for clinical decision-making. Sterling Accuris offers a reliable MSI Study (Microsatellite Instability) IHC test in Dakor with timely reports.
Why and When is an MSI Study (Microsatellite Instability) IHC Test Done?
MSI Study (Micro Satellite Instability) IHC test is an important tumor screening test for newly diagnosed colorectal cancer to identify Lynch syndrome.
The signs of Lynch syndrome the leading contributor to hereditary colorectal cancer is:
- Blood in stool
- Unexplained diarrhoea
- Cramps in the abdomen
- Chronic constipation
- Decrease in stool size
- Bloating and gas
- Unexplained weight loss
- Tiredness
- Vomiting

How to Interpret the MSI Study (Microsatellite Instability) IHC Test Report
Interpretation of the results for the MSI Study (Microsatellite Instability) IHC test in adult females and males are given in the table:
Parameter | Range |
MSI Study (Microsatellite Instability) IHC | MSI high - 2 or more out of 5 core markers showing instability - the probability of Lynch syndrome is high MSI low - 1 out of 5 core markers showing instability cannot determine the probability of Lynch syndrome MSI stable - 0 out of 5 core markers showing instability - no chance of Lynch syndrome |
Causative factors:
- Mutation in the genes of mismatch repair
- Hereditary conditions
