Abstract |
PURPOSE:In this study, we examined the promoter methylation status and expression of 14-3-3 sigma and evaluated its clinical significance in epithelial ovarian cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN:Twelve ovarian cancer cell lines; 2 ovarian surface epithelial cell lines; and 8 normal, 8 benign, 12 borderline, and 102 ovarian cancer tissues were examined. Methylation-specific PCR, quantitative reverse transcription-PCR, and immunohistochemistry were used to evaluate methylation status and expression of 14-3-3 sigma gene and protein. RESULTS:Among the 12 ovarian cancer cell lines, the presence of a methylated band was detected in seven cell lines. Median values of relative 14-3-3 sigma gene expression in cancers with methylation (3.27) were significantly lower than those without methylation (16.4; P < 0.001). Treatment of 5-aza-2'-deoxycitidine resulted in the demethylation of the promoter CpG islands and reexpression. All of the normal, benign, and borderline tissues were positive for 14-3-3 sigma protein, and in ovarian cancer tissues, 73.5% (75 of 102) were positive for 14-3-3 sigma protein and was almost consistent with methylation status. Negative immunoreactivity of 14-3-3 sigma was significantly correlated with high age and serous histology, high-grade, advanced-stage residual tumor of >2 cm, high serum CA125, high Ki-67 labeling index, and positive p53 immunoreactivity. 14-3-3 sigma immunoreactivity was significantly associated with overall survival (P = 0.0058). CONCLUSIONS:Our findings suggest that 14-3-3 sigma is inactivated mainly by aberrant DNA methylation and that it may play an important role in the pathogenesis of epithelial ovarian cancer. |
