Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic cancer (1). We sought to identify genes associated with enhanced survival in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) by comparing global gene expression profiles of tumors from women diagnosed with HGSC with the best and worst progression-free survival (2). We found significant differential expression of the gene encoding the NLR family pyrin domain containing 7 (NLRP 7) when comparing tumor transcriptomes based on progression-free survival. NLRP7 was expressed at significantly higher levels in high-grade serous ovarian tumors of women with the longest progression-free survival.

Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic cancer (1). We sought to identify genes associated with enhanced survival in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) by comparing global gene expression profiles of tumors from women diagnosed with HGSC with the best and worst progression-free survival (2). We found significant differential expression of the gene encoding the cytokine interleukin-16 (IL-16) when comparing tumor transcriptomes based on progression-free survival. IL-16 was expressed at significantly lower levels in high-grade serous ovarian tumors of women with the longest progression-free survival.

High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) is the most common type of the most lethal gynecologic malignancy (1). To identify genes whose expression was associated with survival outcomes in HGSC, we used published data from patients enrolled in the ICON7 trial to compare the global gene expression profiles of primary HGSC tumors from women with the best and worst progression-free survival (PFS) (2). We found that the Frizzled class 7 (Fzd7) receptor was among the genes most differentially expressed in HGSC tumors when comparing tumor transcriptomes based on superior or inferior PFS. In two independent datasets, Fzd7 was among the genes most differentially expressed in HGSC tumors when comparing primary tumor to the normal ovary (3, 4). Wnt pathway signaling through Fzd7 may be relevant to the biology of high-grade serous ovarian cancers.

Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic cancer (1). We sought to identify genes associated with enhanced survival in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) by comparing global gene expression profiles of tumors from women diagnosed with HGSC with the best and worst progression-free survival (2). We found significant differential expression of the gene encoding the receptor antagonist for the cytokine interleukin-1 (IL-1) (IL-1RN) when comparing tumor transcriptomes based on progression-free survival. IL-1RN was expressed at significantly lower levels in high-grade serous ovarian tumors of women with the longest progression-free survival.

Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic cancer (1). We sought to identify genes associated with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) by comparing global gene expression profiles of normal ovary with that of primary tumors from women diagnosed with HGSC using published microarray data (2, 3). Perturbed expression of TCEAL7 has previously been reported in epithelial ovarian cancers (4). Here we find significant differential expression of multiple members of the TCEAL gene family in high-grade serous ovarian tumors.

Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic cancer (1). Soluble factors are an important part of the tumor microenvironment (2). We sought to identify genes associated with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) by comparing global gene expression profiles of normal ovary with that of primary tumors from women diagnosed with HGSC using published microarray data (3, 4). We found significant differential expression of the morphogen fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF10) in high-grade serous ovarian tumors.
