摘要

The expression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling markers (CTNNB1, LEF1/TCF7, c-myc, cyclinD) was assessed in ascites tumor cells with epithelial (EpCam-CK18-E-cadherin), epithelial–mesenchymal (EpCam-CK18-Vimentin), and epithelial–mesenchymal phenotype with stemness features (EpCam-CK18-Vimentin-CD44-CD133) in patients with advanced ovarian cancer. The expression of CTNNB1, LEF1/TCF7, and cyclinD was significantly increased in cells of the epithelial–mesenchymal phenotype with stemness features in patients with refractory tumor. The duration of the relapse-free period is associated with the level of CTNNB1 expression in cells of the epithelial–mesenchymal phenotype with stemness features and the level of LEF1 expression in cells of the epithelial–mesenchymal phenotype.
