This study was designed to investigate the role of MCT1 in the development of cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer and its possible relationship with Fas. We found the expression of MCT1 was obviously increased both in cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer tissue and A2780/CP cells compared with sensitive ovarian cancer tissue and cell lines A2780. And in A2780 cells treated with Cisplatin, the expression of MCT1 increased in a concentration-dependent manner, MCT1 knockdown attenuates cisplatin-induced cell viability. In A2780 and A2780/CP cells transfected with MCT1 siRNA, the activation of several downstream targets of Fas, including FasL and FAP-1 were largely prevented, whereas the expression of Caspase-3 was increased, accompanying with increased abundance of Fas. Coimmunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence showed that there is interaction between endogenous MCT1 with Fas in vivo and in vitro. In vivo, depletion of MCT1 by shRNA reverses cisplatin-resistance and the expression of Fas. This study showed that down regulation of MCT1 promote the sensibility to Cisplatin in ovarian cancer cell line. And this effect appeared to be mediated via antagonizing the effect of Fas.

Epithelial ovarian cancer is the most prevalent gynecological malignancy, characterized by high mortality rates due to its late-stage diagnosis and frequent recurrence. The current standard of care for ovarian cancer is a combination of debulking surgery followed by the conventional mode of chemotherapy. Despite significant advances in therapeutic modalities, the overall survival rate of EOC continues to be poor, mainly because low concentrations of the chemotherapeutics reach the peritoneum, which is the primary site of ovarian cancer, leading to disease relapse.

Leukemia is one of the most common cancers in prepubertal girls and adolescents, with advances improving survival rates. However, treatments like chemotherapy and radiation are highly gonadotoxic, often causing ovarian insufficiency, early menopause, infertility, and endocrine disorders. Fertility preservation for young female cancer patients, especially prepubertal girls without mature germ cells, relies heavily on ovarian tissue cryopreservation.

Cancer cells cope with oxidative stress for their proliferation and metastasis by equipping antioxidant systems, among which the antioxidant enzymes peroxiredoxins (PRDXs) play crucial roles. However, whether PRDXs exhibit nonenzymatic functions remains unclear. Here, it is shown that the 1-cysteine PRDX (PRDX6) upregulates nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT) to promote the growth and metastasis of ovarian cancer cells, independently of PRDX6's enzymatic activities.

Objective: Gonadal dysfunction is a major late complication after cancer diagnosis and treatment. We aimed to study the prevalence of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and the potential reduction of ovarian reserve in a cohort of adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients undergoing cancer treatments, evaluating ovarian function and reserve markers. We also aimed to analyze how these markers are related to each other and to treatment-related risk factors.
