Cellular models of development of ovarian high‐grade serous carcinoma: A review of cell of origin and mechanisms of carcinogenesis
25 Mar 2021
Abstract excerpt
High-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) is the most common and malignant histological type of epithelial ovarian cancer, the origin of which remains controversial. Currently, the secretory epithelial cells of the fallopian tube are regarded as the main origin and the ovarian surface epithelial cells as a minor origin. In tubal epithelium, these cells acquire TP53 mutations and expand to a morphologically normal 'p53...
