“…In ovarian cancer etiology, TNF-a-mediated inflammation has been proposed to contribute to cancer risk (Ness and Cottreau, 2000;Yang et al, 2004). Consistent with this idea, TNF-a is able to stimulate expression of COX-2 in nontumorigenic ovarian surface epithelial cells.…”

“…13 shows that, as expected, the anti-mesothelin ELISA assay detected soluble mesothelin in all ascites fluids as well as in conditioned media from ovarian cancer cell lines and from 293 MESOIg (a transformed cell line that expresses a GPI anchortruncated mesothelin fused to an Ig domain[285]) (Fig.3.2.13A). Endo-A meso ELISA also detected soluble mesothelin in ascites fluids and conditioned media from cancer cell lines.…”

“…Even after cessation of ovulation due to follicle depletion, high levels of gonadotropins followed by inflammatory events could still stimulate an ovulation-like process. Chronic gonadotropin stimulation might lead to chronic innate inflammation and a favoring microenvironment for ovarian cancer development [13].…”
