Öğe Ovarian metastasis of Müllerian adenosarcoma of the cervix with sarcomatous overgrowth [Serviksin sarkomatöz gelişim gösteren Müllerian adenosarkomunda over metastazı](Turkish Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2017) Koyuncuoğlu M.; Saatli B.; Yıldırım N.The aim of this study is to present a rare case of Müllerian adenosarcoma of the cervix with ovarian metastasis and sarcomatous overgrowth. A gravida 2, para 2 woman aged 32 years with vaginal bleeding was admitted to the gynecology department. A 3-4 cm polypoid mass protruding from the cervix was detected in a pelvic examination. Total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingoopherectomy was performed because of metastatic implants on the right ovary. The pathologic evaluation revealed Müllerian adenosarcoma of the cervix with sarcomatous overgrowth and ovarian metastasis. After surgery, the patient was planned to undergo chemo- and radiotherapy. This is the first cervical Müllerian adenosarcoma case mentioned in the literature with metastasis to the ovary in a young woman. There is no optimal management option for cervical adenosarcomas due to the rarity of this phenomenon. Nevertheless, even if the patient is young and imaging techniques do not elucidate metastatic disease, surgeons should evaluate the ovaries for the spread of tumor, especially if histology reveals sarcomatous overgrowth. © 2017 by Turkish Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology.Öğe Ubiquitin–Proteasome Axis, Especially Ubiquitin-Specific Protease-17 (USP17) Gene Family, is a Potential Target for Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition in High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer(SAGE Publications Inc., 2019) Yildirim N.; Kocal G.C.; Isik Z.; Saatli B.; Saygili U.; Uysal T.; Ulukus C.; Koyuncuoglu M.; Ellidokuz H.; Basbinar Y.Objectives: To investigate gene expression differences and related functions between primary tumor, malignant cells in ascites, and metastatic peritoneal implant in high-grade serous ovarian cancer. Methods: Biopsies from primary tumor, peritoneal implant, and ascites were collected from 10 patients operated primarily for high-grade, advanced-staged serous ovarian cancer. Total RNA isolation was performed from collected tissue biopsy and fluid samples, and RNA expression profile was measured. Messenger RNA expression profiles of 3 different groups were compared. Functional analyses of candidate genes were carried out by gene ontology and pathway analysis. Results: There were significant differences in the expression of 5 genes between primary tumor and peritoneal implant, 979 genes between primary tumor and malignant cells in ascites, and 649 genes between peritoneal implant and malignant cells in ascites. Three commonly enriched gene ontology functions between “primary tumor and malignant cells in the ascites” and “peritoneal implant and malignant cells in the ascites” were protein deubiquitination, ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolism, and apoptotic processes. All genes related to these functions belonged to USP17 gene family. Conclusion: Gene expression difference between primary tumor and the peritoneal implant is not as much as the difference between primary tumor and free cells in the ascites. These results show that malignant cells in the ascites return into its genetic origin after they invade on the peritoneum. Significantly increased expression of DUB-enzyme genes, SNAR gene family, and ribosomal pathway genes in epithelial–mesenchymal transition suggests that this regulation is ubiquitin–proteasome dependent. Especially, this is the first study that offers USP17 as a potential target for epithelial–mesenchymal transition. © The Author(s) 2018.
