Effect of surgical volume on short-term outcomes of cytoreductive surgery for advanced-stage ovarian cancer: A population-based study from the Dutch Gynecological Oncology Audit
CONCLUSIONS: Our analyses do not support further centralization of iCRS for advanced-stage OC. High-volume was associated with higher complete pCRS, suggesting either a more accurate selection in these hospitals or a more aggressive approach. The higher completeness rates were at the expense of higher severe complications and prolonged admissions.PMID:38688188 | DOI:10.1016/j.ygyno.2024.04.002 (Source: Gynecologic Oncology)

Deciphering resistance mechanisms and novel strategies to overcome drug resistance in ovarian cancer: a comprehensive review
Oncol Res. 2024 Apr 23;32(5):831-847. doi: 10.32604/or.2024.031006. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTOvarian cancer is among the most lethal gynecological cancers, primarily due to the lack of specific symptoms leading to an advanced-stage diagnosis and resistance to chemotherapy. Drug resistance (DR) poses the most significant challenge in treating patients with existing drugs. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has recently approved three new therapeutic drugs, including two poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (olaparib and niraparib) and one vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor (bevacizumab) for ma...

Clinical and genomic landscape of RAS mutations in gynecologic cancers
CONCLUSION: RAS mutations in gynecologic cancers have a distinct histopathologic distribution and may impact overall survival. PIK3CA, PTEN, and ARID1A are potentially actionable co-alterations. RAS pathway-targeted therapy should be considered.PMID:38687597 | DOI:10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-23-2819 (Source: Clinical Cancer Research)

Expression of human dCTP pyrophosphatase 1 (DCTPP1) and its association with cisplatin resistance characteristics in ovarian cancer
In this study, we aimed to understand the role of DCTPP1 in cancer progression and cisplatin response. Using publicly available databases, we analysed the expression and clinical significance of DCTPP1 in ovarian cancer. Our bioinformatics analysis confirmed that DCTPP1 is significantly overexpressed in ovarian cancer and is closely associated with tumour progression and poor prognosis after cisplatin treatment. We also found that DCTPP1 located in oxidoreductase complex and may be involved in various biological processes related to cisplatin resistance, including pyrimidine nucleotide metabolism, the P53 signalling pathwa...

Molecular Mechanisms and Roles of MiR-136-5p in Human Cancer and Other Disorders
CONCLUSION: The current review aims to elucidate the role of miR-136-5p in both cancer progression and non-cancerous disorders, emphasizing dysregulated signaling pathways. It also sheds light on the potential of this miRNA as a prognostic biomarker in cancer, offering valuable insights and directions for future research.PMID:38685774 | DOI:10.2174/0109298673283936240215110627 (Source: Current Medicinal Chemistry)

Integrative proteomic and transcriptomic analysis in the female goat ovary to explore the onset of puberty
This study conducted the first transcriptomic and proteomic correlation analysis of pre-pubertal and pubertal goat ovaries and identified six significantly correlated molecules at both the gene and protein levels. Meanwhile, we were drawn to several molecules and signalling pathways that may play a regulatory role in the onset of puberty and reproduction by influencing reproductive-related gene expression, GnRH receptor signals, energy metabolism, ovarian hormone secretion, follicular development, and ovulation. This information contributed to identify potential biomarkers in pubertal goat ovaries, which was vital for pred...

Treating Benign Ovarian Lesions in the Pediatric Population: A Single Institution's Retrospective Investigation of Laparoscopy Versus Open Repair
Conclusions: Laparoscopic surgery was performed for smaller lesions and was associated with a shorter length of hospital stay. Laparoscopic and OSS was found to have no increased risk of developing metachronous lesions nor increased reoperative risk compared with traditional open and oophorectomy techniques.PMID:38686518 | DOI:10.1089/lap.2023.0364 (Source: Adv Data)

Exposure to the phthalate metabolite MEHP impacts survival and growth of human ovarian follicles in vitro
Toxicology. 2024 Apr 27:153815. doi: 10.1016/j.tox.2024.153815. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPhthalates are found in everyday items like plastics and personal care products. There is an increasing concern that continuous exposure can adversely affect female fertility. However, experimental data are lacking to establish causal links between exposure and disease in humans. To address this gap, we tested the effects of a common phthalate metabolite, mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP), on adult human ovaries in vitro using an epidemiologically determined human-relevant concentration range (2.05nM - 20.51mM). Histomorphologi...
