(A) Proteomic analysis identifies up- and downregulated ECM-associated proteins in omental metastasis versus normal omentum tissue (n = 8). Representative immunohistochemical staining of normal and metastatic omentum for COL1A1. Scale bar 50 μm. (B) Forest plots of the expression of collagens (COL1A1, COL3A1, and COL5A1) as univariate predictors of overall survival, using the curatedOvarianData (n = 2970) applicable expression and survival information. Hazard ratio (HR) significantly larger than one indicates positive correlation to poor outcome in EOC patients. (C) Box-whisker plots of top 25 collagens gene set variation analysis (GSVA) in 20 non-diseased tissues from GTEx RNA-seq dataset. (D) A schematic figure of integrin receptors and their corresponding ECM ligands. (E) Representative western blot shows the expression of collagen-binding integrins α1, α2, α10, α11, as well as integrin α5 and β1 in omental metastasis and normal omentum. Bar charts with relative integrin expression as mean ± SD (**p<0.05, ***p<0.001; n = 13–19). (F) Representative immunofluorescence images with membranous E-cadherin (green) and ITGA2 (red) staining in ATCs. Pie chart summarizes percentage of ITGA2+ tumor spheroids from EOC patients (n = 15). Scale bar 50 μm. (G) Western blot analysis of ITGA2 and E-cadherin expression in matched EOC patient samples, ascites (AS), primary (OV) and omental metastasis (OM).
