Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal gynecologic cancer (1). We performed discovery of genes associated with epithelial ovarian cancer and of the high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) subtype, using published microarray data (2, 3) to compare global gene expression profiles of normal ovary or fallopian tube with that of primary tumors from women diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer or HGSC. We identified the gene encoding sarcospan, SSPN, as among the genes whose expression was most different in epithelial ovarian cancer as compared to the normal fallopian tube. SSPN expression was significantly lower in high-grade serous ovarian tumors relative to normal fallopian tube. SSPN expression correlated with progression-free survival in patients with ovarian cancer. These data indicate that expression of SSPN is perturbed in epithelial ovarian cancers broadly and in ovarian cancers of the HGSC subtype. SSPN may be relevant to pathways underlying ovarian cancer initiation (transformation) or progression.

We identified the gene encoding phosphodiesterase 5A, PDE5A, as among the genes whose expression was most different in epithelial ovarian cancer as compared to the normal fallopian tube. PDE5A expression was significantly lower in high-grade serous ovarian tumors relative to normal fallopian tube. PDE5A expression correlated with progression-free survival in patients with p53 mutant ovarian cancer. These data indicate that expression of PDE5A is perturbed in epithelial ovarian cancers broadly and in ovarian cancers of the HGSC subtype. PDE5A may be relevant to pathways underlying ovarian cancer initiation (transformation) or progression.

TROAP expression was significantly higher in high-grade serous ovarian tumors relative to normal fallopian tube. TROAP expression correlated with progression-free survival in patients with ovarian cancer.

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal gynecologic cancer (1). We performed discovery of genes associated with epithelial ovarian cancer and of the high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) subtype, using published and public microarray data (2, 3) to compare global gene expression profiles of normal ovary or fallopian tube with that of primary tumors from women diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer or HGSC. We identified the gene encoding dystrophin, DMD, as among the genes whose expression was most different in epithelial ovarian cancer as compared to the normal fallopian tube. DMD expression was significantly lower in high-grade serous ovarian tumors relative to normal fallopian tube. DMD expression correlated with progression-free survival in patients with ovarian cancer. These data indicate that expression of DMD is perturbed in epithelial ovarian cancers broadly and in ovarian cancers of the HGSC subtype. DMD may be relevant to pathways underlying ovarian cancer initiation (transformation) or progression.
