Figure S4. A Western blot showing expression levels of anti-apoptotic proteins BCL-2 and MCL-1 in U266 and MM1S treated with different doses of trabectedin. B Representative dot plot of apoptosis induction and ROS production in U266 and MM1S cells after trabectedin-treatment respect to control, in presence or absence of ascorbic acid. C Western blot reporting protein expression of cell-cycle and DNA-damage regulators (p21, p-Chk2, RAD51 and gH2AX) in OPM2 cell line, after trabectedin treatment. D Representative immunohistochemistry showing gamma-h2ax foci (in brown) in the nuclei of U266 cells growth in matrigel-based spheroids, after 2.5 nM trabectedin treatment. E Surface expression of MI…
Aurora Kinase A expression predicts platinum-resistance and adverse outcome in high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma patients
High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma (HGSOC) is the predominant histotype of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), characterized by advanced stage at diagnosis, frequent TP53 mutation, rapid progression, and high responsiveness to platinum-based-chemotherapy. To date, standard first-line-chemotherapy in advanced EOC includes platinum salts and paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab. The major prognostic factor is the response duration from the end of the platinum-based treatment (platinum-free interval) and about 10–0 % of EOC patients bear a platinum-refractory disease or develop early resistance (platinum-free interval shorter than 6 months). On these bases, a careful selection of patients who …

Figure S2. A Dot plots reporting pro-apoptotic activity of trabectedin after 24 h treatment in primary myeloma cells from three different patients. On the right, histogram reporting the % of viable cells. B Western blot images of a panel of 12 MM cell lines representing proteins belonging to NER pathway, which not exhibited a pattern associated with response to trabectedin. C Expression of the genes belonging to the NER pathway obtained by interrogating 2 different publicly available datasets (GSE68379 and GSE6205) including several MM cell lines used in our in vitro experiments. Cell lines segregate, in an unsupervised hierarchical clustering, accordingly to their response to trabectedin. …

Figure S3. A GSEA results according to clueGO grouped by functions dependent on upregulated or downregulated genes. B Genes belonging to NER pathway resulted to be upregulated following trabectedin treatment in U266. Below, western blot to confirm DDB2 upregulation in 2 different cell lines. (PDF 974 kb)

Figure S1. A Meta-analysis of 4 different GEP datasets of MM comparing the expression levels of genes belonging to different DNA-repair pathways (BER, MMR, HR, c-NHEJ, a-NHEJ, FA) in PCs from MM patients with PCs from healthy donors. B For each panel: on the left, forest plot showing the results of the multivariate COX regression analysis performed on all genes included in the specific DNA repair system. On the right, Kaplan-Meyer curve report results of prognostic system in which patients were divided into “low” and “high” risk group, according to the expression of genes identified by previous multivariate analysis.

Figure S1. Correlation of platinum sensitivity status with survival. Kaplan Meier curves of EOC patients grouped according to platinum sensitive (PS) or resistant (PR) disease. Patients with a platinum sensitive ovarian cancer presents a significant longer survival thus confirming the reliability of the sample. (JPG 182 kb)
