According to the new classification, four CMS with distinguishing characteristics have been proposed: CMS1 (microsatellite instability immune subtype: hypermutated subtype of CRC, microsatellite unstable with a strong immune activation); CMS2 (canonical subtype of CRC: epithelial subtype with upregulation of the WNT and MYC signaling pathways); CMS3 (metabolic subtype of CRC: epithelial subtype with metabolic dysregulation); and CMS4 [mesenchymal subtype of CRC with prominent transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) activation, stromal invasion and neoangiogenesis] [3]. This evidence concerns the gene MYC and colorectal carcinoma.
