Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is known that anchorage-independent growth is a character of cancer cells. However, not all the cancer cells have this ability. In this study, we conducted a functional genomics screening by using an shRNA library. Then we found knockdown of ABHD2 increased the ability of anchorage-independent growth. Additionally, in both clinical samples and cell lines, suppressed expression of ABHD2 was associated with resistance to platinum. These results revealed how DNA aberrations in ovarian cancer cause cancer progression and drug resistance and would be useful to develop a new therapy and a biomarker to select drugs.
