The article is a review of the literature, which analyzes the data on the role of cells of the immune system, cytokines and other biologically active substances secreted by them in the interstitial space of an ovarian tumor. The emphasis is made on the mechanism of realization by immune cells of the stimulating and suppressing action on the development of the tumor. Considerable attention is paid to the prognostic role of immune cells in the development of epithelial ovarian cancer.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: To understand the role of PGF2a and to characterize a novel cyclooxyrgenase (COX)-independent prostaglandin synthesis pathway in epithelial ovarian cancer. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We used high grade epithelial ovarian cancer cell line (OVCAR3) as a model to study our pathway. Our main mode of PGF2a detection is through mass spectrometry. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Our current results suggest the OVCAR3 cells may synthesize PGF2a independently of COX enzymes. We anticipate this novel pathway may be dependent on the TGFb pathway. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Understanding the role and synthesis pathway of PGF2a may allow us to uncover a novel therapeutic pathway for high grade ovarian cancer.
