摘要

Our understanding of the roles played by sex hormones in ovarian carcinogenesis has been limited by a lack of data concerning the mode of sex hormone action in human ovarian surface epithelial (HOSE) cells, the tissue of origin of >90 of ovarian cancers. We have compared the relative abundance of estrogen receptor (ER)ca, ER beta, progesterone receptor (PR), and androgen receptor (AR) mRNA in four primary cultures of HOSE cells obtained from postmeno- pausal women to those found in late serous adenocarcinoma primary cell cultures and established ovarian cancer cell lines. We observed coexpression of ERa and ER beta along with AR and PR transcripts in normal HOSE cells and disruption of ER alpha mRNA expression as well as dramatic down-regulation of PR and AR transcript expression in most ovarian cancer cells. In contrast, levels of ER beta mRNA were unaffected by the malignant state. Additionally, a novel mutation involving a 32-bp deletion in exon 1 of ER alpha transcripts was detected in the SKOV3 cell line. This mutation would explain why SKOV3 was reported to be ER-positive but estrogen- insensitive. Taken together, these findings suggest that estrogens, signaling via either or both ER subtypes, may play an indispensable role in regulating normal HOSE cell functions. Therefore, loss of ER alpha, PR, and AR mANA expression in HOSE cells may be responsible for neoplastic transformation in this cell type. In contrast, the roles played by ERP in normal and malignant HOSE cells remain elusive. Finally, the coexistence of mutated ER alpha mRNA and normal ER beta transcripts
