SK-OV-3 Cell Line:

SKOV3 is a human ovarian cancer cell line that is commonly used in research to study ovarian cancer, a type of cancer that affects the ovaries. The SKOV3 cell line was originally derived from the ascites fluid of a patient with ovarian adenocarcinoma. SKOV-3 cells are known to exhibit many of the characteristics of ovarian cancer, including abnormal cell growth and differentiation, resistance to apoptosis (programmed cell death), and the ability to invade surrounding tissue. They are often used as a model system to study the mechanisms underlying ovarian cancer development and to test potential therapeutic agents for their ability to inhibit cancer growth and metastasis. Ovarian cancer is considered the fifth primary cause of cancer deaths among women, accounting for more fatalities than any other type of cancer in females. Ovarian cancer mostly occurs in older Caucasian women over 60 years old and is one of the deadliest gynecological malignancy worldwide, as indicated by the American Cancer Society. Although ovarian cancer incidence rates have been consistently declining over the last decade, new treatment approaches are required to improve survival rates of those affected. The SK-OV-3 tumorigenic epithelial cell line was isolated in 1973 from the ovarian tissue of a 64-year-old Caucasian female with adenocarcinoma. SK-OV-3 cells have been known to be resistant to tumor necrosis, as well as several other cytotoxic drugs such as Adriamycin, cis-platinum, and diphtheria toxin. The SK-OV-3 cell line is hypodiploid and a suitable transfection host for ovarian cancer research. Altogen Biosystems offers optimized lipid-based transfection kits for SK-OV-3 cells.

Data:

SKOV3 Transfection Reagent

Figure 1. Cyclophilin B silencing efficiency was determined by RT-PCR in the SKOV3 cells transfected by Cyclophilin B siRNA or non-silencing siRNA control following the recommended transfection protocol. Cyclophilin mRNA expression levels were measured 48 hours post-transfection. 18S rRNA levels were used to normalize the Cyclophilin B data. Values are normalized to untreated sample. Data are presented as means ± SD (n=6).

Figure 2. Protein expression of Cyclophilin B in SK-OV-3 cells. DNA plasmid expressing Cyclophilin B or siRNA targeting Cyclophilin B were transfected into SK-OV-3 cells following Altogen Biosystems transfection protocol. At 72 hours post-transfection the cells were analyzed by Western Blot for protein expression levels (normalized by total protein, 10 µg of total protein loaded per each well). Untreated cells used as a negative control.
