    Subcellular Stress Markers in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

    by Edina Amalia Wappler-Guzzetta, Eva Margittai, Krisztina Veszelyi, Shanel Pickard, Caroline Merwin, Attila Molvarec, Ibolya Czegle

    Epithelial ovarian cancer is one of the most lethal gynecological malignancies worldwide. Its development strongly depends on several genetic and environmental factors, with metabolic components and cellular redox homeostasis alterations playing a significant a role in its development and disease progression. In this review, we summarize the contribution of mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in the pathogenesis of epithelial ovarian cancer along with their role as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets, including proteins of glucose metabolism, mitochondrial fission and fusion, mitophagy, membrane-associated ring-CH-type finger 5 (MARCH5), A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs), proteins regulating mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis, mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt) proteins, activating transcription factors (ATFs), CCAAT enhancer binding protein (C/EBP) homologous protein (CHOP), ‘mitokines’, GRP75, and GRP78. Although many of these potential targets are in preclinical phase, they have a high potential to become valuable alternative or additive treatments for epithelial ovarian cancers.
