A Novel Serum-Based Bioassay for Quantification of Cancer-Associated Transformation Activity: A Case-Control and Animal Study
Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland) ·doi:10.3390/diagnostics15151975

Background/Objectives: The detection of ovarian cancer remains challenging due to the lack of reliable serum biomarkers that reflect malignant transformation rather than mere tumor presence. We developed a novel biotest using an immortalize…

Ovulation releases G-CSF to induce peritoneal neutrophil influx and netosis, facilitating peritoneal seeding of high-grade serous carcinoma
Neoplasia (New York, N.Y.) ·doi:10.1016/j.neo.2025.101236

INTRODUCTION: High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC), the most lethal subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), often originates from serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma (STIC) and is typically diagnosed at advanced stages. However, t…

Epidermal growth factor receptor ligands enriched in follicular fluid exosomes promote oncogenesis of fallopian tube epithelial cells
Cancer cell international ·doi:10.1186/s12935-024-03614-9

BACKGROUND: Incessant ovulation is the main etiologic factor of ovarian high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSC), which mostly originate from the fallopian tube epithelium (FTE). Receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands essential for follicle deve…
