PARP inhibitors (PARPi) are currently used as first-line therapy for advanced and recurrent ovarian cancer, but the clinical efficacy is limited by drug resistance. We aimed to investigate the role of KIAA1529 in PARPi resistance in ovarian cancer. The expression of KIAA1529 was determined in ovarian cancer cells using qRT‒PCR and western blotting. Immunohistochemistry was used to examine the expression of KIAA1529 in primary ovarian cancer and recurrent ovarian cancer tissues. The effects of KIAA1529 on PARPi resistance were evaluated by knocking down KIAA1529 expression in ovarian cancer cells and assessing cell viability by CCK8 assays, apoptosis by flow cytometry, and homologous recombination (HR) repair by immunofluorescence analysis. The interaction between KIAA1529 and RAD51 was examined by western blotting. KIAA1529 was confirmed to be expressed in all ovarian cancer cell lines, and high expression of KIAA1529 was observed in recurrent ovarian cancer tissues. Inhibiting KIAA1529 expression increased the sensitivity of ovarian cancer cells to PARPi treatment. Furthermore, KIAA1529 increased the expression of the downstream effector RAD51 via Aurora-A, and HR was restored in ovarian cancer cells. This study demonstrates that KIAA1529 regulates RAD51 expression through Aurora-A to restore HR, which confers resistance to PARPi in ovarian cancer cells. These findings could provide a novel therapeutic target to overcome PARPi resistance in ovarian cancer.

Ovarian cancer (OC) must be detected in its early stages when the mortality rate is the lowest to provide patients with the best chance of survival. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a critical OC biomarker since its levels are elevated across all stages and increase with disease progression. This paper presents an LPA assay based on a thickness shear mode acoustic sensor with dissipation monitoring that involves a new thiol molecule 3-(2-mercaptoethanoxy)propanoic acid (HS-MEG-COOH).

: Pathophysiological variability in patients with cancer is associated with differences in responses to pharmacotherapy. In this work, we aimed to describe the demographic characteristics and hematological, biochemical, and coagulation variables in a large oncology cohort and to develop, optimize, and provide open access to modeling equations for the estimation of variables potentially relevant in pharmacokinetic modeling. : Using data from 1793 patients with cancer, divided into training ( = 1259) and validation ( = 534) datasets, a modeling network was developed and used to simulate virtual oncology populations.

Ovarian cancer is the deadliest gynecologic cancer, and with the majority of patients dying within the first five years of diagnosis, new therapeutic options are required. The small guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) Ras-related nuclear protein (Ran) has been reported to be highly expressed in high-grade serous ovarian cancers (HGSOCs) and associated with poor outcomes. Blocking Ran function or preventing its expression were shown to be promising treatment strategies, however, there are currently no small molecule inhibitors available to specifically inhibit Ran function.

Ovarian cancer has the highest mortality rate in the world. Treatment methods are listed as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, depending on the stage of cancer, but developing resistance to chemotherapy increases the need for alternative agents that act on the same pathways. The effects of rosmarinic acid (RA) and doxorubicin (DX) on the activation of FOXP3, an important tumor suppressor gene, in OVCAR3 cells were examined.

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Sparstolonin B (SsnB) on cell proliferation and apoptosis in human breast cancer (MCF-7) and human ovarian epithelial cancer (OVCAR-3) cell lines in the presence and absence of estradiol hemihydrate (ES). Phosphoinositol-3 kinase (PI3K), phosphorylated protein kinase B alpha (p-AKT), phosphorylated mTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin) signaling proteins, and sphingomyelin/ceramide metabolites were also measured within the scope of the study. The anti-proliferative effects of SsnB therapy were evaluated over a range of times and concentrations.
