In this work, the penetration of therapeutic agents of two distinct molecular weights into the spheroids of ovarian adenocarcinoma overexpressing human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) was studied.
This study demonstrates tumor cell heterogeneity with regard to neu gene amplification and expression in an ovarian adenocarcinoma, reveals the overexpression of novel neu-complementary transcripts in two independently isolated ovarian adenocarcinoma cell lines, and suggests that neu gene expression is not required for intraperitoneal tumorigenicity of ovarian carcinoma xenografts in a nude mouse model system.
Approximately 30-50% of cases of ovarian adenocarcinoma harbour mutations in the p53 tumour-suppressor gene associated with elevated levels of the protein detected by immunohistochemical staining.
Autophagy was examined in two cell lines, SKOV-3 (human ovarian adenocarcinoma) and OV-90 (human ovarian papillary serous adenocarcinoma), which differ in the levels of p-glycoprotein and drug resistance, based on the LC3 ELISA assay, fluorescence detection of autophagosome formation, morphological changes evaluated via acridine orange staining, and visualization of LC3 protein using confocal microscopy.
In this study we directly compared levels of IL-1alpha-induced gene expression by analysing the levels of 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11betaHSD) types 1 (11betaHSD-1) and 2 (11betaHSD-2), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), IL-1 receptor (IL-1R) and glucocorticoid receptor alpha (GRalpha) mRNA between normal HOSE cells and cell lines derived from poorly differentiated (SKOV-3, BG-1, PEO-4) and well-differentiated (PEO-14) ovarian adenocarcinoma.
We examined tumor samples taken from 30 patients with primary serous papillary adenocarcinoma of the ovary for the expression of MDR1 and MRP1, MRP2, and MRP3 mRNA by using real-time reverse transcription-PCR, and we evaluated its correlation with clinical outcome.

Our In silico analyses showed that higher KIFC1 expression was associated with poor overall survival (OS) in serous ovarian adenocarcinoma (SOC) patients suggesting that an aggressive disease course in ovarian adenocarcinoma patients can be attributed to high KIFC1 levels.
This antibody was shown to bind purified recombinant chimeric TIM-1-Fc protein and TIM-1 expressed on a variety of transformed cell lines, including Caki-1 (human renal clear cell carcinoma), IGROV-1 (human ovarian adenocarcinoma), and A549 (human lung carcinoma).

In this study, an array-based comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) analysis revealed Met gene amplification in 4/13 OCC primary tumors and 2/8 OCC cell lines.
To address this mechanism in a physiological setting, TGF-β insensitive ovarian adenocarcinoma cells (HEY) have a very low GULP expression level, similar to the observation made in a wide selection of human ovarian adenocarcinomas.
Real-time PCR and western blot analyses confirmed that PADI4 was expressed at higher levels in ovarian adenocarcinoma (n=8) compared to ovarian cystadenoma (n=5) (p< 0.05).
Epithelial membrane antigen was positive only in the ovarian adenocarcinoma component, and vimentin was diffusely positive only in the intra-abdominal undifferentiated tumor component.
