Evidence from human and animal studies suggests that chronic behavioral stress and resulting activation of the sympathetic nervous system may influence initiation and progression of tumors. However, the underlying mechanisms for these observations are poorly understood. The purpose of this study is to explore the effects of adrenergic signaling on cell line models derived from normal cells presumed to originate epithelial ovarian cancers. Here we explored the effects of the stress-related hormone, norepinephrine, on the transcriptional program of normal immortalized ovarian (iOSE) and fallopian tube (iFTSEC) surface epithelial cells. Analysis of RNA-Seq data of treated and untreated cells revealed a significant overlap between the responses in iOSE and iFTSEC cells. Most genes modulated by norepinephrine in ovarian and fallopian tube epithelial cells are already expressed in normal ovarian and fallopian tissue and cells. For several genes, expression changes were reflected at the protein level. Genes in immune-related and developmental pathways were enriched in the set of genes modulated by norepinephrine. We identified HOXA5, SPIB, REL, SRF, SP1, NFKB1, MEF2A, E2F1, and EGR1 transcription factor binding sites to be highly enriched in our dataset. These data represent the early transcriptional response to norepinephrine in cells postulated to originate epithelial ovarian cancer.

View all literature mentionsTHIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on February 28,2023. Software Python package that provides infrastructure to process data from high-throughput sequencing assays. While the main purpose of HTSeq is to allow you to write your own analysis scripts, customized to your needs, there are also a couple of stand-alone scripts for common tasks that can be used without any Python knowledge.
