Expression of Metastasis-related nm23-H1 and nm23-H2 Genes in Ovarian Carcinomas: Correlation with Clinicopathology, EGFR, c-erbB-2, and c-erbB-3 Genes, and Sex Steroid Receptor Expression

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of metastasis-related nm23 genes in carcinogenesis and progression of ovarian carcinoma was verified by analyzing the mRNA levels of the nm23-H1 genes of both isoforms, -H1 and -H2, together with those of the epidermal growth factor receptor, the c- erb B-2, and the c - erbB-3 genes in 45 ovarian carcinomas and 5 benign cystadenomas.

Expression of Multidrug Resistance Gene and Localization of P-Glycoprotein in Human Primary Ovarian Cancer

TL;DR: Some ovarian cancer cases before chemotherapy are intrinsically multidrug resistant, which can be determined by mdr1 gene expression, and this phenotype should be taken into account for effective chemotherapy of ovarian epithelial carcinomas.

c-myc over-expression in human primary ovarian tumours: Its relevance to tumour progression

TL;DR: Significant over‐ expression of the c‐myc gene at Stage III compared with other stages, and one remarkable case of over‐expression in a serous tumour of low malignant potential suggest that c‐ myc expression is temporarily activated at some stage(s) during tumorigenesis of ovarian cancer, especially of serous cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurofibromin 1 (NF1) Defects Are Common in Human Ovarian Serous Carcinomas and Co-occur with TP53 Mutations

TL;DR: The TP53 tumor-suppressor gene was mutated in all OSCs with documented NF1 mutation, suggesting that the pathways regulated by these two tumor-Suppressor proteins often cooperate in the development of ovarian carcinomas with serous differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

CD44 variant 6 is correlated with peritoneal dissemination and poor prognosis in patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer.

TL;DR: The peritoneal disseminated metastasis of epithelial ovarian cancer is initiated by the CD44v6‐positive subpopulation, and CD 44v6 expression is a biomarker for the clinical outcome of advanced ovarian cancer patients.
