By comparing 573 patients with bowel cancer with reference controls (China_MAPs database), significant associations (p < 0.01) were observed between the incidence of bowel cancer and the presence of mutations in APC, ATM, MLH1, FANCD2, MSH3, MSH6, PMS1, and RAD51D. Somatic gene differential analysis revealed a marked difference in 18 genes and a significant difference was also noted in tumor mutation burden (TMB) between germline mutation carriers and non-germline mutation subjects (p < 0.001). The gene discussed is MSH3; the disease is intestinal cancer.
