| Abstract | Background Individual patients with ovarian cancer show remarkably different prognosis. Present prognostic models for ovarian cancer mainly focus on clinico-pathological parameters, so quantifiable prognostic markers at molecular level are urgently needed. Platelets contribute to ovarian cancer progression, but have not been considered as biomarkers likely due to their instability. Here, we aimed to search for a stable prognostic marker from platelet-treated ovarian cancer cells, and explore its functions and mechanisms. Methods Microarrays analysis was done with platelet-treated SKOV-3 ovarian cancer cells. Relevant studies were searched in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. The candidate genes were determined by differentially expressed genes (DEGs), Venn diagram drawing, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, Cox proportional hazards model and Kaplan-Meier analysis. The expression of TGFBI in clinical samples was assessed by immunehistochemical staining (IHC), and the association of TGFBI levels with the clinic-pathological characteristics and prognosis in ovarian cancer patients was evaluated by univariate and multivariate analysis. The functions of TGFBI were predicted using data from TCGA, and validated by in vitro and in vivo experiments. The mechanism exploration was performed based on proteomic analysis, molecular docking and intervention study. Results TGFBI was significantly higher expressed in the platelet-treated ovarian cancer cells. An analysis of bioinformatics data revealed that increased expression of TGFBI led to significant decrease of overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and post-progression survival (PPS) in ovarian cancer patients. Tissue microarray results showed that TGFBI was an independent factor for ovarian cancer, and TGFBI expression predict poor prognosis. Functionally, TGFBI affected the migration and invasion of ovarian cancer cells by regulation of epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers (CDH1 and CDH2) and extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation proteins (MMP-2). Mechanistically, TGFBI phosphorylated PI3K and Akt by combining integrin αvβ3. Conclusions We found out TGFBI as a novel prognostic indicator for ovarian cancer patients. TGFBI could promote metastasis in ovarian cancer by EMT induction and ECM remodeling, which might be associated with the activation of integrin αvβ3-PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. |

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.
