Surgical stress promotes tumor growth in ovarian carcinoma.
PURPOSE Surgical stress has been suggested to facilitate the growth of preexisting micrometastases as well as small residual tumor postoperatively. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of surgical stress on ovarian cancer growth and to determine underlying mechanisms responsible for increased growth. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN To mimic the effects of surgery, we did a laparotomy or m...
متن کاملDopamine blocks stress-mediated ovarian carcinoma growth.
PURPOSE Increased adrenergic activity in response to chronic stress is known to promote tumor growth by stimulating the tumor microenvironment. The focus of the current study was to determine whether dopamine, an inhibitory catecholamine, could block the effects of chronic stress on tumor growth. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Expression of dopamine receptors (DR1-DR5) was analyzed by reverse transcript...
متن کاملHE4 (WFDC2) gene overexpression promotes ovarian tumor growth
Selective overexpression of Human epididymal secretory protein E4 (HE4) points to a role in ovarian cancer tumorigenesis but little is known about the role the HE4 gene or the gene product plays. Here we show that elevated HE4 serum levels correlate with chemoresistance and decreased survival rates in EOC patients. HE4 overexpression promoted xenograft tumor growth and chemoresistance against c...
متن کاملUbiquitin E3 ligase MARCH7 promotes ovarian tumor growth
Ubiquitin E3 ligase MARCH7 is involved in T cell proliferation and neuronal development. We found that expression of MARCH7 was higher in ovarian cancer tissues than normal ovarian tissues. Silencing MARCH7 decreased cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Ectopic expression of MARCH7 increased cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Silencing MARCH7 prevented ovarian cancer growth in ...
