Abstract | OBJECTIVE: MATERIALS AND METHODS:
Cytokeratin 5 expression was evaluated in 2 ovarian tissue microarrays, representing 137 neoplasms, and 6 ovarian cancer cell lines. Cell lines were treated with IC(50) (half-maximal inhibitory concentration) cisplatin, and the prevalence of CK5(+) cells pretreatment and posttreatment was determined. Proliferation of CK5(+) versus CK5(-) cell populations was determined using 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine incorporation. Chemotherapy-induced apoptosis in CK5(+) versus CK5(-) cells was measured using immunohistochemical staining for cleaved caspase-3. RESULTS: CONCLUSIONS:
