Sulforaphene suppressed cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis of COV362 cells in endometrioid ovarian cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation exerts a regulatory effect on endometrioid ovarian cancer (EOC), but the specific m6A regulator genes in EOC remain to be explored. This study investigated that sulforaphene (Sul) is implicated in EOC development by regulating methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3).

Methods

The dysregulated m6A RNA methylation genes in EOC were determined by methylated RNA immunoprecipitation (MeRIP-seq) and RNA sequencing. The roles of METTL3 and/or Sul on viability, proliferative ability, cell cycle, and apoptosis of EOC cells were determined by MTT, colony formation, flow cytometry, and TUNEL staining assay, respectively. The expression of METTL3 and apoptosis-related proteins in EOC cells was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reac
