27255997MUS81 is associated with cell proliferation and cisplatin sensitivity in serous ovarian cancer
27255997MUS81 is a member of the conserved xeroderma pigmentosum group F (XPF) family protein of endonucleases, which is important to the DDR pathway
27255997However, the role of MUS81 in the development of ovarian cancer remains uncertain
27255997To explore the expression of MUS81 and its association to serous ovarian cancer (SOC), 43 biopsies of SOC patients were detected by qRT-PCR, and 29 specimens were further performed by immunohistochemistry analysis
27255997Here, we observed that MUS81 was over-expressed in SOC tissues at both transcript and protein levels, and the expression level of MUS81 protein in ovarian cancer cell lines was also higher than that in human normal ovarian surface epithelial cell line (HOSEpiC)
27255997We also found that down-regulation of MUS81 expression in ovarian cancer cells inhibited cell proliferation and colony formation ability, and influenced cell cycle progression
27255997Moreover, inhibition of MUS81 expression induced cellular senescence and enhanced the antitumor effect of cisplatin
27255997Down-regulation of MUS81 expression could suppress the growth and development of SOC
27255997These results indicate that MUS81 might play important roles in the progression of SOC and influence the antitumor effect of cisplatin
26415217Acute MUS81 depletion leads to replication fork slowing and a constitutive DNA damage response
26415217The MUS81 protein belongs to a conserved family of DNA structure-specific nucleases that play important roles in DNA replication and repair
26415217Inactivation of the Mus81 gene in mice has no major deleterious consequences for embryonic development, although cancer susceptibility has been reported
26415217We have investigated the role of MUS81 in human cells by acutely depleting the protein using shRNAs
26415217We found that MUS81 depletion from human fibroblasts leads to accumulation of ssDNA and a constitutive DNA damage response that ultimately activates cellular senescence
26415217Moreover, we show that MUS81 is required for efficient replication fork progression during an unperturbed S-phase, and for recovery of productive replication following replication stalling
26415217These results demonstrate essential roles for the MUS81 nuclease in maintenance of replication fork integrity
