Abstract

Introduction: Ovarian cancer is a common gynecological malignancy. It is one of the leading causes of death among women worldwide. The incidence of ovarian cancer ranks third, and mortality is the first among gynecological malignant tumors. CCL2 (Chemokine C-C motif Ligand 2) is associated with the progression of a variety of tumors, including ovarian cancer. However, the mechanism of CCL2 in A2780 cell growth has not been clarified.

Method: In this study, we found that exogenous CCL2 promoted A2780 cell activity. RNA sequencing was used to identify the transcriptomic changes in CCL2-treated A2780 cells. Based on a p-value less than 0.05 and |log2 Fold Change| greater than 1, 190 differentially expressed genes were selected. Of these genes, 82 were observed to be upregulated and 108 downregulated.

Result: The GO (gene ontology) analysis of differentially expressed genes was used to identify the underlying functions and biological processes. In addition, the expression of the topmost upregulated genes was verified by qPCR.

Conclusion: This work may provide new markers and reveal the underlying mechanism of exogenous CCL2 in A2780 cell proliferation.
