Abstract Backguound: To screen the signaling axis of epigenetic modification in serum exosomes of ovarian cancer patients based on sequencing technology and raw signal analysis, in depth study of the potential mechanism of action of ovarian cancer, prediction of potential therapeutic targets and survival prognosis analysis of potential targets.Methods: Serum exosomes from three ovarian cancer patients were selected as the experimental group, and serum exosomes from three uterine fibroid patients as the control group, and whole transcriptome of serum exosomes was performed to obtain differentially expressed lncRNA and mRNA in ovarian cancer,The miRcode database and miRNA target gene prediction website were used to predict the target genes, Cytoscape software was used to draw a ceRNA network model of epigenetic modification of ovarian cancer serum exosomes, and the R language was used for GO and KEGG enrichment analysis of the target genes. Finally, the TCGA website was used to download clinical and expression data related to ovarian cancer, and the common potential target genes obtained in the previous period were analyzed for survival。Results: A total of 117 differentially expressed lncRNAs as well as 513 differentially expressed mRNAs (P < 0.05, |log2 FC|≥ 1.0) were obtained by combining sequencing data and raw signal analysis, and 841 predicted target genes were reciprocally mapped by combining mircode database and miRNA target gene prediction website, resulting in 11 potential target genes related to ovarian cancer (FGFR3, BMPR1B, TRIM29, FBN2, PAPPA, CCDC58, IGSF3, FBXO10, GPAM, HOXA10, LHFPL4), and survival prognosis analysis of the above 11 target genes revealed that the survival curve was statistically significant (P < 0.05) for HOXA10 only genes, but not for the other genes, and through enrichment analysis, we found that the above target genes were mainly involved in biological processes such as regulation of transmembrane receptor protein kinase activity, structural molecule activity with elasticity, transforming growth factor - activated receptor activity, and GABA receptor binding, and were mainly enriched in signaling pathways regulating stem cell pluripotency, bladder cancer, glycerolipid metabolism, central carbon metabolism of cancer, tyrosine stimulation to EGFR in signaling pathways such as resistance to enzyme inhibitors.Conclusions: The serum exosomal DIO3OS-hsa-miR-27a-3p-HOXA10 epigenetic modification signaling axis affects ovarian cancer development and disease survival prognosis by targeting transcriptional dysregulation pathways in cancer.

Abstract Background Most cancers favor glycolytic-based glucose metabolism. Hexokinase-2 (HK2), the first glycolytic rate-limiting enzyme, shows limited expression in normal adult tissues but is overexpressed in many tumor tissues, including ovarian cancer. HK2 has been shown to be correlated with the progression and chemoresistance of ovarian cancer and could be a therapeutic target. However, the systemic toxicity of HK2 inhibitors has limited their clinical use. Since follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) receptor (FSHR) is overexpressed in ovarian cancer but not in nonovarian healthy tissues, we designed FSHR-mediated nanocarriers for HK2 shRNA delivery to increase tumor specificity and decrease toxicity. Results HK2 shRNA was encapsulated in a polyethylene glycol-polyethylenimine copolymer modified with the FSH β 33–53 or retro-inverso FSH β 33–53 peptide. The nanoparticle complex with FSH peptides modification effectively depleted HK2 expression and facilitated a shift towards oxidative glucose metabolism, with evidence of increased oxygen consumption rates, decreased extracellular acidification rates, and decreased extracellular lactate and glucose consumption in A2780 ovarian cancer cells and cisplatin-resistant A2780CP counterpart cells. Consequently, cell proliferation, invasion and migration were significantly inhibited, and tumor growth was suppressed even in cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer. No obvious systemic toxicity was observed in mice. Moreover, the nanoparticle complex modified with retro-inverso FSH peptides exhibited the strongest antitumor effects and effectively improved cisplatin sensitivity by regulating cisplatin transport proteins and increasing apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway. Conclusions These results established HK2 as an effective therapeutic target even for cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer and suggested a promising targeted therapeutic approach.

Stage I epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) represents about 10% of all EOCs. It is characterized by a complex histopathological and molecular heterogeneity, and it is composed of five main histological subtypes (mucinous, endometrioid, clear cell and high, and low grade serous), which have peculiar genetic, molecular, and clinical characteristics. As it occurs less frequently than advanced-stage EOC, its molecular features have not been thoroughly investigated. In this study, using in silico approaches and gene expression data, on a multicentric cohort composed of 208 snap-frozen tumor biopsies, we explored the subtype-specific molecular alterations that regulate tumor aggressiveness in stage I EOC. We found that single genes rather than pathways are responsible for histotype specificities and that a cAMP-PKA-CREB1 signaling axis seems to play a central role in histotype differentiation. Moreover, our results indicate that immune response seems to be, at least in part, involved in histotype differences, as a higher immune-reactive behavior of serous and mucinous samples was observed with respect to other histotypes.
