ABSTRACTOvarian cancer is the most fatal type of gynecological cancer. The main reason for high mortality is the development of drug resistance. It can be related to increased expression of drug transporters and increased expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. miRNA is a short noncoding RNA that regulates expression of about 60% of genes in the human genome and plays a crucial role in developing cancer, including resistance to chemotherapy.Our foremost aim was to exhibit alterations in the miRNA expression levels in the cisplatin (CIS), paclitaxel (PAC), doxorubicin (DOX), and topotecan (TOP) - resistant variants of W1 sensitive ovarian cancer cell line using miRNA microarray. The second goal was to identify miRNAs responsible for the regulation of drug-resistant genes.According to our observation, alterations in the expression of 40 miRNA genes. The level of expression of 21 genes was upregulated in at least one drug-resistant cell line. The expression of 19 genes was downregulated in at least one drug-resistant cell line. We identified target genes for 22 miRNAs. Target analysis showed that miRNA regulates key genes responsible for drug resistance. Among others, we observed regulation of the ABCB1 (MDR1) gene in the W1PR1 cell line by miR-363 and regulation of the COL3A1 gene in the W1TR cell line by miR-29a.Hence, on the basis of our findings, results indicate that genes responsible for drug resistance development in ovarian cancer can be regulated by miRNA.

Ovarian cancer rates the highest mortality among all gynecological malignancies. The main reason for high mortality is the development of drug resistance. It can be related to increased expression of drug transporters and increased expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. Our foremost aim was to exhibit alterations in the miRNA expression levels in cisplatin (CIS), paclitaxel (PAC), doxorubicin (DOX), and topotecan (TOP)—resistant variants of the W1 sensitive ovarian cancer cell line—using miRNA microarray. The second goal was to identify miRNAs responsible for the regulation of drug-resistant genes. According to our observation, alterations in the expression of 40 miRNAs were present. We could observe that, in at least one drug-resistant cell line, the expression of 21 miRNAs was upregulated and that of 19 miRNAs was downregulated. We identified target genes for 22 miRNAs. Target analysis showed that miRNA regulates key genes responsible for drug resistance. Among others, we observed regulation of the ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 gene (ABCB1) in the paclitaxel-resistant cell line by miR-363 and regulation of the collagen type III alpha 1 chain gene (COL3A1) in the topotekan-resistant cell line by miR-29a.

One of the main obstacles to the effective treatment of ovarian cancer patients continues to be the drug resistance of cancer cells. Osteoblast-Specific Factor 2 (OSF-2, Periostin) is a secreted extracellular matrix protein (ECM) expressed in fibroblasts during bone and teeth development. Expression of OSF-2 has been also related to the progression and drug resistance of different tumors. The present study investigated the role of OSF-2 by evaluating its expression in the primary serous ovarian cancer cell line, sensitive (W1) and resistant to doxorubicin (DOX) (W1DR) and methotrexate (MTX) (W1MR). The OSF-2 transcript (real-time PCR analysis), protein expression in cell lysates and cell culture medium (western blot), and expression of the OSF-2 protein in cell lines (immunofluorescence) were investigated in this study. Increased expression of OSF-2 mRNA was observed in drug-resistant cells and followed by increased protein expression in cell culture media of drug-resistant cell lines. A subpopulation of ALDH1A1-positive cells was noted for W1DR and W1MR cell lines; however, no direct co-expression with OSF-2 was demonstrated. Both drugs induced OSF-2 expression after a short period of exposure of the drug-sensitive cell line to DOX and MTX. The obtained results indicate that OSF-2 expression might be associated with the development of DOX and MTX resistance in the primary serous W1 ovarian cancer cell line.

Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecological malignancy. The high mortality results from late diagnosis and the development of drug resistance. Drug resistance results from changes in the expression of different drug-resistance genes that may be regulated miRNA. The main aim of our study was to detect changes in miRNA expression levels in two cisplatin (CIS) and two paclitaxel (PAC)—resistant variants of the A2780 drug-sensitive ovarian cancer cell line—by miRNA microarray. The next goal was to identify miRNAs responsible for the regulation of drug-resistance genes. We observed changes in the expression of 46 miRNA that may be related to drug resistance. The overexpression of miR-125b-5p, miR-99a-5p, miR-296-3p, and miR-887-3p and downregulation of miR-218-5p, miR-221-3p, and miR-222-3p was observed in both CIS-resistant cell lines. In both PAC-resistant cell lines, we observed the upregulation of miR-221-3p, miR-222-3p, and miR-4485, and decreased expression of miR-551b-3p, miR-551b-5p, and miR-218-5p. Analysis of targets suggest that expression of important drug-resistant genes like protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Receptor Type K (PTPRK), receptor tyrosine kinase—EPHA7, Semaphorin 3A (SEMA3A), or the ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 gene (ABCB1) can be regulated by miRNA.

Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death among gynaecological malignancies. Extracellular matrix (ECM) can affect drug resistance by preventing the penetration of the drug into cancer cells and increased resistance to apoptosis. This study demonstrates alterations in the expression levels of ECM components and related genes in cisplatin-, doxorubicin-, topotecan-, and paclitaxel-resistant variants of the A2780 ovarian cancer cell line. Affymetrix Gene Chip Human Genome Array Strips were used for hybridisations. The genes that had altered expression levels in drug-resistant sublines were selected and filtered by scatter plots. The genes that were up- or downregulated more than fivefold were selected and listed. Among the investigated genes, 28 genes were upregulated, 10 genes were downregulated, and two genes were down- or upregulated depending on the cell line. Between upregulated genes 12 were upregulated very significantly—over 20-fold. These genes included COL1A2, COL12A1, COL21A1, LOX, TGFBI, LAMB1, EFEMP1, GPC3, SDC2, MGP, MMP3, and TIMP3. Four genes were very significantly downregulated: COL11A1, LAMA2, GPC6, and LUM. The expression profiles of investigated genes provide a preliminary insight into the relationship between drug resistance and the expression of ECM components. Identifying correlations between investigated genes and drug resistance will require further analysis.

Ovarian cancer is a major cause for death of gynecological cancer patients. The efficacy of traditional surgery and chemotherapy is rather compromised and platinum-resistant cancer recurs. Finding new therapeutic targets is urgently needed to increase the survival rate and to improve life quality of patients with ovarian cancer. In the present work, phosphoproteomic analysis was carried out on untreated and gossypol-treated ovarian cancer cell line, HOC1a. We identified approximately 9750 phosphopeptides from 3030 phosphoproteins, which are involved in diverse cellular processes including cytoskeletal organization, RNA and nucleotide binding, and cell cycle regulation. Upon gossypol treatment, changes in phosphorylation of twenty-nine proteins including YAP1 and AKAP12 were characterized. Western blotting and qPCR analysis were used to determine expression levels of proteins in YAP1-related Hippo pathway showing that gossypol induced upregulation of LATS1, which phosphorylates YAP1 at Ser 61. Furthermore, our data showed that gossypol targets the actin cytoskeletal organization through mediating phosphorylation states of actin-binding proteins. Taken together, our data provide valuable information to understand effects of gossypol on protein phosphorylation and apoptosis of ovarian cancer cells.
