...In general, defective homologous recombination repair (HR), non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ), mismatch repair (MMR), base excision repair (BER), and disorders in nucleotide excision repair (NER) are typically reflected in OvC origin, pathogenesis and response to chemotherapy [20,24], whereas direct reversal of lesions is in connection with OvC addressed scarcely....

...Among fitness genes belonging to the NER pathway we identified some crucial factors, whose mutations are strongly correlated to cancerous phenotype, such as POLE, RPA3, and ERCC genes [95]....

...Loss of function in the hub genes of the MMR pathway have been identified in 29% of ovarian cancers and their mutations correlate with the neoplasm stage [95]....

...The constituent pathways of the DDR include DNA repair machinery, cell cycle checkpoints, and apoptotic pathways; mutations in any components of these pathways are involved in the ovarian cancer initiation and progression as well as in resistance to therapy [95]....
