"It has been shown that binding of CCL5 to SDC4 induces activation of PKCα , which is involved in multiple pathways including cell cycle progression, tumorigenesis and metastatic dissemination , but the mechanistic role of SDC4-CCL5 in ovarian cancer progression remains poorly understood."

"Although our computational model does not consider the spatial proximity between the cells of interest, ascites from ovarian cancer patients creates a unique TME as a reservoir of pro-tumorigenic soluble factors including CCL5 and other cytokines reported in our previous work. xref In this study, we found that CCL5-SDC4 axis may play a crucial role in ovarian cancer cell survival and poor patient prognosis."

"To validate our model, we analyzed the recently published scRNA-seq study of malignant ascites from patients with advanced-stage ovarian cancer. xref Also this analysis highlighted the putative role of intercellular communication through CCL5-SDC4 axis in immune cells and ovarian cancer cells ( xref )."

"SDC4 is a heparan sulfate proteoglycan that modulates focal adhesion and has been implicated in cancer progression and metastasis. xref Elevated SDC4 expression has been reported in hepatocellular cancer and mesotheliomas. xref , xref Previous ovarian cancer study observed that SDC4 is expressed in normal ovary and in both benign and malignant ovarian tumors. xref CCL5 is elevated in various types of cancers, including ovarian cancer. xref It has been shown that binding of CCL5 to SDC4 induces activation of PKCα xref , xref , which is involved in multiple pathways including cell cycle progression, tumorigenesis and metastatic dissemination xref , but the mechanistic role of SDC4-CCL5 in ovarian cancer progression remains poorly understood."
