| Abstract | G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) was identified as a new member of the estrogen receptor family in recent years. It has become apparent that GPER mediates the non-genomic signaling of 17β-estradiol (E$_{2}$) in a variety of estrogen-related cancers. Our previous study has found that GPER was overexpressed in human epithelial ovarian cancer and was positively correlated with the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9), which suggested GPER might promote the metastasis of ovarian cancer. However, the mechanisms underlying GPER-dependent metastasis of ovarian cancer are still not clear. In the present study, estrogen receptor α (ERα)-negative/GPER-positive OVCAR5 ovarian cancer cell line was used to investigate the role of GPER in the migration and invasion of ovarian cancer. Wound healing assay and transwell matrigel invasion assay were performed to determine the potentials of cell migration and invasion, respectively. The production and activity of MMP-9 in OVCAR5 cells were examined by Western blot and gelatin zymography analysis. The results showed that E$_{2}$ and selective GPER agonist G-1 increased cell motility and invasiveness, and upregulated the production and proteolytic activity of MMP-9 in OVCAR5 cells. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting GPER and G protein inhibitor pertussin toxin (PTX) inhibited the migration and invasion of OVCAR5 cells, and also reduced the expression and activity of MMP-9. Our data suggested that GPER promoted the migration and invasion of ovarian cancer cells by increasing the expression and activity of MMP-9. GPER might play an important role in the progression of ovarian cancer. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
