<p>Treatment with chemotherapy is important in limiting the intensity of serous epithelial ovarian cancer. However, not all patients are sensitive to platinum chemotherapy corresponding to longer progression-free survival (PFS &gt;8 months). Koti <em>et al.</em>[1] revealed a set of 204 discriminating genes possessing expression levels, which could influence differential chemotherapy response between the platinum-resistant and platinum-sensitive group of patients. They considered Welch two-sample <em>t</em>-test and non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test to identify the differentially expressed genes. However, both the statistical methods turned out to be unsuitable for microarray data. In this paper, we used three alternative statistical methods to select a combined list of genes and compared the genes that were proposed by Koti <em>et al.</em>[1]. Subsequently, we recommended using sparse principal component analysis (sparse PCA) to identify a final list of genes. Sparse PCA incorporates correlation into account among the genes and helps to draw a biologically important gene discovery. We identified 77 differentially expressed genes, which include 11 new genes that can separate the groups of patients who are platinum-resistant and platinum-sensitive to the chemotherapy. The integrative approach can also be effective in another high dimensional dataset to compare between two groups.</p>

The molecular events leading to the development and progression of ovarian carcinoma are not completely understood. We performed a large-scale survey for the identification of differentially expressed genes between ovarian carcinoma and normal ovarian tissue by using cDNA microarray analysis. We utilized 512 member human novel putative oncogene and tumor suppressor gene cDNA microarrays to study the differences in gene expression between ovarian carcinoma and normal ovarian tissues. Some differentially expressed genes have been further confirmed by immunohistochemical analysis. A total of 39 differentially expressed genes were identified, of which 16 and 23 were specifically expressed in ovarian cancer and normal ovarian tissue, respectively. The comparison of average signal of differentially expressed genes exhibited at least a twofold difference in expression. The differentially expressed genes may be related to the carcinogenesis and progression of the malignant growth. The use of cDNA microarrays allows simultaneous monitor of the expression of many genes, thereby it speeds up the identification of differentially expressed genes. It is essential for further exploration of the mechanisms of the disease.

Ovarian cancer is most common reason for a gynecological cancer death in the developed world (1). There are zero targeted chemotherapies available for the treatment of ovarian cancer. We studied the transcriptomes of tumors from ovarian cancer by comparing them to the transcriptome of normal ovarian tissue using two separate datasets (2, 3). We found that the cadherin-like and PC esterase domain containing 1, CPED1, was among the genes whose expression changed the most between ovarian tumors and the normal ovary. This is the first report of differential expression of CPED1 in ovarian cancer.

High-grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer (HGSC) is the most aggressive subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer. The identification of germline and somatic mutations along with genomic information unveiled by The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and other studies has laid the foundation for establishing preclinical models with high fidelity to the molecular features of HGSC. Notwithstanding such progress, the field of HGSC research still lacks a model that is both robust and widely accessible. In this review, we discuss the recent advancements and utility of HGSC genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) to date. Further analysis and critique on alternative approaches to modelling HGSC considers technological advancements in somatic gene editing and modelling prototypic organs, capable of tumorigenesis, on a chip.
