Abstract Background Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of gynecological cancer-related mortality. The novel oncogene S100A10 has been reported to be involved in cancer cell proliferation, invasion and metastasis. The role of S100A10 in ovarian cancer has not been well studied and the effect of S100A10 on chemotherapy remains unclear. The aims of the present study were to investigate the functional role of S100A10 in the progression and carboplatin sensitivity of ovarian cancer. Methods We examined the expression levels in tissues of S100A10 in 138 cases of ovarian cancer by IHC. To determine the functional roles of downregulated S100A10 in ovarian cancer, cell proliferation, colony formation, cell migration and invasion assays were performed. Chemoresistance was analyzed by apoptosis assay. A xenograft tumor model was established to confirm the role of S100A10 in carboplatin resistance in vivo. Using Western blot assays, we also explored the possible mechanisms of S100A10 in ovarian cancer. Results The results showed that increased expression of S100A10 was positively associated with carboplatin resistance (P < 0.001), tumor grade (P = 0.048) and a poorer prognosis (P = 0.0053). Functional analyses demonstrated that S100A10 suppression significantly suppressed ovarian cancer cell proliferation, colony formation, cell migration and invasion, remarkably increased carboplatin-induced apoptosis in SKOV3 and A2780 cells and inhibited tumor growth in vivo. Downregulation of S100A10 expression could inhibit cell proliferation and enhance ovarian cancer cell sensitivity to carboplatin, possibly involving the regulation of cleaved-Caspase3 and cleaved-PARP. Conclusions Together, the results of the present study reveal that S100A10 expression can be used as a predictive marker for the prognosis of ovarian cancer and chemosensitivity to carboplatin.

AbstractExtracellular vesicles (EVs) play crucial roles in intercellular communication. miRNAs derived from EVs emerge as promising diagnostic indicators and therapeutic targets in a variety of malignancies. Tremendous studies have revealed the function of miRNAs derived from EVs in tumorigenesis, metastasis and other aspects. The mechanism of action of EV-derived miRNAs, however, in ovarian cancer remains largely unknown. In this study, EVs were enriched from the ovarian cancer cell lines. EVs as a whole could promote cell proliferation, invasion and new vasculature formation. However, the down-regulated EV-derived miR-320a was demonstrated to potentially suppress tumorigenesis, metastasis and angiogenesis. Moreover, EV-derived miR-320a has been proved to directly regulate a previously unknown target, ZC3H12B. An unreported role of ZC3H12B in promoting ovarian cancer cell proliferation has been elucidated and miR-320a could mediate the expression of ZC3H12B, thereby inhibiting the downstream response. As for the practical clinic values, lower expression of EV-derived miR-320a correlates with shorter survival period, indicating that EV-derived miR-320a may also serve as a prognostic biomarker in ovarian cancer. This research provides new insight into the molecular mechanism of EV-derived miR-320a in ovarian cancer and may provide new therapeutic and prognostic strategies for ovarian cancer treatment.

Abstract Background Propofol is commonly used for anesthesia during surgery and has been demonstrated to inhibit cancer development, which is shown to be associated with deregulation of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). The objective of this study was to explore the role of circular RNA mucin 16 (circ_MUC16) in Propofol-mediated inhibition of ovarian cancer. Methods The expression of circ_MUC16, microRNA-1182 (miR-1182) and S100 calcium-binding protein B (S100B) mRNA was measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). The expression of S100B protein was checked by western blot. Cell proliferation was assessed by 3-(4, 5-di methyl thiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-di phenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and colony formation assay. Glycolysis metabolism was assessed by glucose consumption, lactate production and ATP level. Cell migration and cell invasion were assessed by transwell assay. Cell migration was also assessed by wound healing assay. Animal study was conducted in nude mice to determine the role of circ_MUC16 in vivo. The relationship between miR-1182 and circ_MUC16 or S100B was validated by dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay. Results Propofol inhibited ovarian cancer cell proliferation, glycolysis metabolism, migration and invasion, which were partly recovered by circ_MUC16 overexpression. Circ_MUC16 was downregulated in Propofol-treated ovarian cancer cells. Besides, circ_MUC16 knockdown enhanced the effects of Propofol to further inhibit tumor growth in vivo. MiR-1182 was a target of circ_MUC16, and circ_MUC16 knockdown-inhibited cell proliferation, glycolysis metabolism, migration and invasion were partly restored by miR-1182 inhibition. In addition, S100B was a target of miR-1182, and miR-1182-suppressed cell proliferation, glycolysis metabolism, migration and invasion were partly restored by S100B overexpression. Conclusion Circ_MUC16 overexpression alleviated the effects of Propofol to promote the aggressive behaviors of ovarian cancer by targeting the miR-1182/S100B network.
