FOXD3 confers chemo-sensitivity in ovarian cancer through a miR-335/DAAM1/myosin II axis-dependent mechanism.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Chemotherapy is among the most common treatment methods for ovarian cancer (OC). However, chemoresistance limits the effectiveness of chemotherapy and leads to treatment failure. We herein investigate the biological effect of forkhead box D3 (FOXD3) in the chemoresistance of OC cells.

Methods

Expression of FOXD3, miR-335 and disheveled-associated activator of morphogenesis 1 (DAAM1) was detected in OC cells and tissues. The regulatory network of FOXD3/miR-335/DAAM1 was validated by dual-luciferase reporter and ChIP assays in vitro. After ectopic expression and depletion experiments in carboplatin/paclitaxel (CP)-resistant (A2780CP) or sensitive (A2780S) OC cells, cell viability, colony formation and apoptosis were tested by CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay and
