Aim: In our previous report, we identified roles of CLDN7 in regulation of cell signaling. The goal of this study was to identify proteins interacting with CLDN7 in ovarian cancer.
Methods: The yeast two-hybrid system was used to identify proteins directly interacting with CLDN7 and cell survival was tested using colony formation assay.
Results: Amyloid precursor-like protein 2 (APLP2) was found directly associated with CLDN7 in ovarian cancer cell line OVCA420. In addition, APLP2 showed increased expression in ovarian cancer cell lines and tumor tissue samples compared with non-neoplastic ovarian tissues. Knockdown of CLDN7 led to increased expression of APLP2 at both the mRNA and protein levels. Knockdown of APLP2 was associated with decreased cell survival in ovarian cancer cells.
Conclusion: We show a direct interaction of CLDN7 with APLP2. These findings suggest novel regulatory role for APLP2 in ovarian cancer, a role that appears to be mediated by CLDN7.

Background: Extraskeletal osteosarcoma (ESOS) is a rare kind of sarcoma with a low preoperative diagnosis and a poor prognosis. ESOS arising from abdominal mesentery is extremely rare. Increasing diagnostic methods and standardizing treatment protocols are crucial issues of ESOS.

Background: Olaparib is a relatively new poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) administered to ovarian cancer (OC) patients with a complete or partial response to first-line chemotherapy. One of the metabolic side effects of olaparib is the disruption of glucose homeostasis, often resulting in hyperglycemia The study was a retrospective analysis of olaparib-induced hyperglycemia in OC patients with initial normoglycemia following the first, second, and third month of olaparib treatment METHODS: The study involved 32 OC patients, classified into three groups according to their Body Mass Index (BMI): normal BMI (BMI 18.5-24.

The distinctive characteristics of an individual's T cell receptor repertoire are crucial in recognizing and responding to a diverse array of antigens, contributing to immune specificity and adaptability. The repertoire, famously vast due to a series of cellular mechanisms, can be quantified using repertoire sequencing. In this study, we sampled the repertoire of 85 women: ovarian cancer patients (OC) and healthy donors (HD), generating a dataset of T cell clones and their abundance.

Objective: The presence of the microcystic elongated and fragmented (MELF) pattern, distinguished by its microcystic, elongated and fragmented attributes, constitutes a common manifestation of myometrial invasion (MI) within endometrial carcinoma. However, the prognostic significance of this pattern has not been definitively established. Consequently, this research aimed to clarify the prognostic implications of the MELF pattern for individuals diagnosed with endometrial carcinoma.

Unlike high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC), which mainly affects postmenopausal women, mucinous ovarian carcinoma (MOC) affects younger patients, with a median age at diagnosis of 53 years, and is rare among premenopausal women. After they receive anticancer treatment, these women encounter specific issues involving fertility preservation (FP) and/or pregnancy, which potentially require assisted reproductive technology (ART) as well as the prescription of hormonal contraception (HC) or hormone replacement therapy (HRT). We reviewed the available literature in PubMed/Medline concerning the risks of the development of ovarian cancer (OC), including MOC, associated with ART, HC and HRT, and literature on the impact of ovarian stimulation in the context of FP and/or ART, HC and HRT in women previously treated for OC, including MOC.
