Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal disease among female genital malignant tumors. Peptidylarginine deiminase type II(PADI II) has been shown to enhance a variety of cancers carcinogenesis, including ovarian cancer. The purpose of this study was to investigate the biological role of PADI2 in ovarian cancer (OC) and the relative mechanism.
Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) ( https://gepia.pku.cn/ ) and ONCOMINE ( https://www.oncomine.org/ ) were used to analyze PADI2 Gene Expression data. The survival curve for the PADI2 gene was generated by using the online Kaplan-Meier mapping site ( https://www.kmplot.com/ ). We conducted MTT assay, cloning formation assay and EdU cell proliferation assay to detect the cell activity of PADI2 knockdown A2780 and SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells treated with Olaparib. Cell migration and invasion were observed by would healing and transwell assay. The pathway changes after the treatment of PADI2 were detected by transcriptome sequencing and western blot. The role of PADI2 combined with Olaparib treatment in vivo was studied in nude mouse model bearing ovarian cancer tumor.
We investigated the role of PADI2 on EOC in vitro and in vivo. PADI2 was upregulated in ovarian cancer samples and high PADI2 expression was correlated with poor outcome. Downregulating PADI2 suppressed colony formation, proliferation, migration and invasion of A2780 and SKOV3 cells. Furthermore, downregulating PADI2 and Olaparib combination treatment attenuated the viability, migration and invasion of A2780 and SKOV3 cells. We identified differentially expressed genes in A2780-shPADI2 and SKOV3-shPADI2 cell by transcriptome sequencing analysis and verified that downregulating PADI2 and Olaparib combination treatment suppresses EMT and JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway in A2780 and SKOV3 cells in vitro and in vivo.
Downregulation of PADI2 and Olaparib combination treatment attenuated the proliferation, migration and invasion of A2780 and SKOV3 cells by inhibiting the EMT through JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.
上皮性卵巢癌(EOC)是女性生殖系统恶性肿瘤中致死率最高的疾病。II型肽基精氨酸脱亚氨酶(PADI II)已被证明可促进多种癌症的发生发展,包括卵巢癌。本研究旨在探讨PADI2在卵巢癌(OC)中的生物学作用及其相关机制。
我们在体外和体内研究了PADI2对EOC的作用。PADI2在卵巢癌样本中上调,高PADI2表达与不良预后相关。下调PADI2可抑制A2780和SKOV3细胞的集落形成、增殖、迁移和侵袭。此外,下调PADI2与奥拉帕尼联合治疗可减弱A2780和SKOV3细胞的活力、迁移和侵袭能力。通过转录组测序分析,我们在A2780-shPADI2和SKOV3-shPADI2细胞中鉴定出差异表达基因,并证实下调PADI2与奥拉帕尼联合治疗在体外和体内均可抑制A2780和SKOV3细胞中的上皮-间质转化(EMT)和JAK2/STAT3信号通路。
下调PADI2与奥拉帕尼联合治疗通过JAK2/STAT3信号通路抑制EMT,从而减弱A2780和SKOV3细胞的增殖、迁移和侵袭能力。
