Abstract
Cathepsin D (CD) is overexpressed in several types of cancer and constitutes an important biological target. Pepstatin A, a pentapeptide incorporating two non-proteinogenic statin residues, is among the most potent inhibitor of CD but lacks selectivity and suffers from poor bioavailability. Eight analogues of Pepstatin A, were synthesized, replacing residues in P3 or P1 position by non-canonical (S)- and (R)-α-Trifluoromethyl Alanine (TfmAla), (S)- and (R)-Trifluoromethionine (TFM) or non-natural d-Valine. The biological activities of those analogues were quantified on isolated CD and Pepsin by fluorescence-based assay (FRET) and cytotoxicity of the best fluorinated inhibitors was evaluated on SKOV3 ovarian cancer cell line. (R)-TFM based analog of Pepstatin A (compound 6) returned a sub-nanomolar IC50 against CD and an increased selectivity. Molecular Docking experiments could partially rationalize these results. Stabilized inhibitor 6 in the catalytic pocket of CD showed strong hydrophobic interactions of the long and flexible TFM side chain with lipophilic residues of S1 and S3 sub-pockets of the catalytic pocket. The newly synthesized inhibitors returned no cytotoxicity at IC50 concentrations on SKOV3 cancer cells, however the compounds derived from (S)-TfmAla and (R)-TFM led to modifications of cells morphologies, associated with altered organization of F-actin and extracellular Fibronectin.

Abstract
In vivo, cells reside in a 3D porous and dynamic microenvironment. It provides biochemical and biophysical cues that regulate cell behavior in physiological and pathological processes. In the context of fundamental cell biology research, tissue engineering, and cell-based drug screening systems, a challenge is to develop relevant in vitro models that could integrate the dynamic properties of the cell microenvironment. Taking advantage of the promising high internal phase emulsion templating, we here designed a polyHIPE scaffold with a wide interconnected porosity and functionalized its internal 3D surface with a thin layer of electroactive conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) to turn it into a 4D electroresponsive scaffold. The resulting scaffold was cytocompatible with fibroblasts, supported cellular infiltration, and hosted cells, which display a 3D spreading morphology. It demonstrated robust actuation in ion- and protein-rich complex culture media, and its electroresponsiveness was not altered by fibroblast colonization. Thanks to customized electrochemical stimulation setups, the electromechanical response of the polyHIPE/PEDOT scaffolds was characterized in situ under a confocal microscope and showed 10% reversible volume variations. Finally, the setups were used to monitor in real time and in situ fibroblasts cultured into the polyHIPE/PEDOT scaffold during several cycles of electromechanical stimuli. Thus, we demonstrated the proof of concept of this tunable scaffold as a tool for future 4D cell culture and mechanobiology studies.

Abstract
At a crime scene, investigators are faced with a multitude of traces. Among them, biological traces are of primary interest for the rapid genetic-based identification of individuals. "Touch DNA" consists of invisible biological traces left by the simple contact of a person's skin with objects. To date, these traces remain undetectable with the current methods available in the field. This study proposes a proof-of-concept for the original detection of touch DNA by targeting cell-derived fragments in addition to DNA. More specifically, adhesive-structure proteins (laminin, keratin) as well as carbohydrate patterns (mannose, galactose) have been detected with keratinocyte cells derived from a skin and fingermark touch-DNA model over two months in outdoor conditions. Better still, this combinatory detection strategy is compatible with DNA profiling. This proof-of-concept work paves the way for the optimization of tools that can detect touch DNA, which remains a real challenge in helping investigators and the delivery of justice.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer (OC) is a disease of major concern with a survival rate of about 40% at five years. This is attributed to the lack of visible and reliable symptoms during the onset of the disease, which leads over 80% of patients to be diagnosed at advanced stages. This implies that metastatic activity has advanced to the peritoneal cavity. It is associated with both genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity, which considerably increase the risks of relapse and reduce the survival rate. To understand ovarian cancer pathophysiology and strengthen the ability for drug screening, further development of relevant in vitro models that recapitulate the complexity of OC microenvironment and dynamics of OC cell population is required. In this line, the recent advances of tridimensional (3D) cell culture and microfluidics have allowed the development of highly innovative models that could bridge the gap between pathophysiology and mechanistic models for clinical research. This review first describes the pathophysiology of OC before detailing the engineering strategies developed to recapitulate those main biological features.

Abstract
Epithelial ovarian cancers are insidious pathologies that give a poor prognosis due to their late discovery and the increasing emergence of chemoresistance. Development of small pharmacological anticancer molecules remains a major challenge. Ribavirin, usually used in the treatment of hepatitis C virus infections and more recently few cancers, has been a suggestion. However, Ribavirin has many side-effects, suggesting that the synthesis of analogs might be more appropriate. We have investigated the effect of a Ribavirin analog, SRO-91, on cancer cell behavioral characteristics considered as some of the hallmarks of cancer. Two human ovarian adenocarcinoma cell lines (SKOV3 and IGROV1) and normal cells (mesothelial and fibroblasts) have been used to compare the effects of SRO-91 with those of Ribavirin on cell behavior underlying tumor cell dissemination. SRO-91, like Ribavirin, inhibits proliferation, migration, clonogenicity and spheroids formation of cancer cells. Unlike Ribavirin, SRO-91 is preferentially toxic to cancer compared with normal cells. An in vitro physiologically relevant model showed that SRO-91, like Ribavirin or cisplatin, inhibits cancer cell implantation onto peritoneal mesothelium. In conclusion, SRO-91 analog effects on tumor dissemination and its safety regarding non-cancerous (normal) cells are encouraging findings a promising drug for the treatment of ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Changes in glycosylation have been associated with human cancer, but their complexity poses an analytical challenge. Ovarian cancer is a major cause of death in women because of an often late diagnosis. At least one-third of patients presents ascites fluid at diagnosis, and almost all have ascites at recurrence. Vitronectin (Vn) is a multifunctional glycoprotein that is suggested to be implicated in ovarian cancer metastasis and is found within ascites. The present study evaluated the potential of using lectin affinity for characterizing the glycosylation pattern of Vn. Human Vn was purified from 1 sample of ovarian cancer ascites or a pool of plasma samples. Consistent findings were observed with both dot blot and lectin array assays. Based on a panel of 40 lectins, the lectin array revealed discriminant patterns of lectin binding to Vn glycans. Interestingly, almost all the highlighted interactions were found to be higher with Vn from ascites relative to the plasma counterpart. Also, the lectin array was able to discriminate profiles of lectin interactions (ConA, SNA-I, PHA-E, PHA-L) between Vn samples that were not evident using dot blot, indicating its high sensitivity. The model of ConA binding during thermal unfolding of Vn confirmed the higher accessibility of mannosylated glycans in Vn from ascites as monitored by turbidimetry. Thus, this study demonstrated the usefulness of lectins and the lectin array as a glycoproteomic tool for high throughput and sensitive analysis of glycosylation patterns. Our data provide novel insights concerning Vn glycosylation patterns in clinical specimens, paving the way for further investigations regarding their functional impact and clinical interest.

Abstract
Fibronectin (FN) is a multifunctional glycoprotein of the extracellular matrix (ECM) playing critical roles in physiological and pathological cell processes like adhesion, migration, growth, and differentiation. These various functions of FN are modulated by its supramolecular state. Indeed, FN can polymerize into different types of assemblies like fibrils and aggregates. However, the mechanism of polymerization and the effects of such assemblies on cell behaviors still remain to be elucidated. Here we show that upon irreversible thermal denaturation, human blood plasma fibronectin forms high molecular weight aggregates. These compact and globular aggregates show amyloid features: they are stabilized by intermolecular b-sheets, they bind Thioflavin T and they are resistant to reducing and denaturing agents. Their characterization by electrospray ionization charge detection mass spectrometry shows that two populations can be distinguished according to the mass and charge density. Despite their amyloid features and the presence of hydrophobic patches on their surface, these aggregates are not toxic for cells. However, their binding abilities to gelatin and RGD are drastically decreased compare to native FN, suggesting possible effects on ECM-cell interactions.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic cancer mainly due to spheroids organization of cancer cells that disseminate within the peritoneal cavity. We have investigated the molecular mechanisms by which ovarian cancer spheroids resist anoikis, choosing as models the 2 well-characterized human ovarian cancer cell lines IGROV1 and SKOV3. These cell lines have the propensity to float as clusters, and were isolated from tumor tissue and ascites, respectively. To form spheroids, IGROV1 and SKOV3 ovarian adenocarcinoma cells were maintained under anchorage-independent culture conditions, in which both lines survive at least a week. A short apoptotic period prior to a survival signaling commitment was observed for IGROV1 cells whereas SKOV3 cells entered G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle. This difference in behavior was due to different signals. With regard to SKOV3 cells, activation of p38 and an increase in p130/Rb occurred once anchorage-independent culture was established. Analyses of the survival signaling pathway switched on by IGROV1 cells showed that activation of ERK1/2 was required to evade apoptosis, an effect partly dependent on PKC activation and αv integrins. αv-integrin expression is essential for survival through activation of ERK1/2 phosphorylation. The above data indicate that ovarian cancer cells can resist anoikis in the spheroid state by arrest in the cell cycle or through activation of αv-integrin-ERK-mediated survival signals. Such signaling might result in the selection of resistant cells within disseminating spheroids, favoring further relapse in ovarian cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intra-abdominal ascites is a complication of ovarian cancers and constitutes a permissive microenvironment for metastasis. Since fibronectin and vitronectin are key actors in ovarian cancer progression, we investigated their occurrence and molecular characteristics in various ascites fluids and the influence of these ascites-derived proteins on cell behavior. METHODS Fibronectin and vitronectin were investigated by immunoblotting within various ascites fluids. A combined affinity-based protocol was developed to purify both proteins from the same sample. Each purified protein was characterized with regard to its molecular features (molecular mass of isoforms, tryptophan intramolecular environment, hydrodynamic radii), and its influence on cell adhesion. RESULTS Fibronectin and vitronectin were found in all tested ascites. Several milligrams of purified proteins were obtained from ascites of varying initial volumes. Molecular mass isoforms and conformational lability of proteins differed according to the ascites of origin. When incorporated into the cancer cell environment, ascites-derived fibronectin and vitronectin supported cell adhesion and migration with various degrees of efficiency, and induced the recruitment of integrins into focal contacts. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this is the first combined purification of two extracellular matrix proteins from a single pathological sample containing a great variety of bioactive molecules. This study highlights that ascites-derived fibronectin and vitronectin exhibit different properties depending on the ascites. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE Investigating the relationships between the molecular properties of ascites components and ovarian cancer cell phenotype according to the ascites may be critical for a better understanding of the recurrence of this lethal disease and for further biomarker identification.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer progression is frequently associated with the development of malignant ascites. Multicellular aggregates of carcinoma cells (spheroids) found within ascites are thought to be able to promote peritoneal carcinomatosis. We have previously demonstrated the involvement of the vitronectin/alphav integrin adhesive system in the dissemination of ovarian cancer cells and continue to investigate the influence of these molecules by studying their role(s) in spheroid behavior. The aim of this study was to generate ovarian cancer multicellular aggregates and to focus on the role of vitronectin and alphav integrins in their initiation. IGROV1 cancer cells cultured in the absence of adhesive substratum formed multicellular aggregates comparable to spheroids. After 21 days, a fraction of the cells within clusters remained viable and proliferated recurrently. Within the multicellular aggregates, vitronectin and alphav integrins were co-localized at intercellular sites, suggesting their involvement in cell-cell interactions. Initial formation of IGROV1 aggregates was inhibited using anti-vitronectin and anti-alphav integrin blocking antibodies or the cyclic peptide cRGDfV. Vitronectin expression persisted during cluster disaggregation on fibronectin. These results demonstrate the ability of IGROV1 cells to generate multicellular aggregates and point to a contributory role for the vitronectin/alphav integrin system in the initial step of this process. These events could represent a prerequisite for further dissemination.

Abstract
In ovarian carcinomas, recurrence and acquired chemoresistance are the first leading causes of therapeutic failure and are responsible for the poor overall survival rate. Cisplatin exposure of sensitive cells has been previously associated with a down-regulation of Bcl-X(L) expression and apoptosis, whereas recurrence was systematically observed when Bcl-X(L) expression was maintained. Bcl-X(L) down-regulation could thus constitute an interesting chemosensitizing strategy. We showed that a Bcl-X(L)targeted RNA interference strategy efficiently sensitized chemoresistant ovarian carcinoma cells to cisplatin, but some of them were still able to re-proliferate. Considering the possible cooperation between Bcl-X(L)and MCL-1, we investigated the possibility to avoid recurrence in vitro using a multi-targeted RNAi strategy directed against these two anti-apoptotic proteins. We showed that their concomitant inhibition lead to massive apoptosis in absence of cisplatin, this multi-targeted RNAi approach being much more efficient than conventional chemotherapy. We thus demonstrated that Bcl-X(L) and MCL-1 cooperate to constitute together a strong molecular "bolt", which elimination could be sufficient to allow chemoresistant ovarian carcinoma cells apoptosis. Moreover, we demonstrated that in presence of a low concentration of cisplatin, the concomitant down-regulation of Bcl-X(L) and MCL-1 allowed a complete annihilation of tumour cells population thus avoiding subsequent recurrence in vitro in cell lines highly refractory to any type of conventional chemotherapy. Therefore, Bcl-X(L) and MCL-1 targeted strategies could constitute an efficient therapeutic tool for the treatment of chemoresistant ovarian carcinoma, in association with conventional chemotherapy.

Abstract
Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) is a well-known probe for labeling biologically relevant proteins. However, the impact of the labeling procedure on protein structure and biological activities remains unclear. In this work, FITC-labeled human plasma fibronectin (Fn) was developed to gain insight into the dynamic relationship between cells and Fn. The similarities and differences concerning the structure and function between Fn-FITC and standard Fn were evaluated using biochemical as well as cellular approaches. By varying the FITC/Fn ratio, we demonstrated that overlabeling (>10 FITC molecules/Fn molecule) induces probe fluorescence quenching, protein aggregation, and cell growth modifications. A correct balance between reliable fluorescence for detection and no significant modifications to structure and biological function compared with standard Fn was obtained with a final ratio of 3 FITC molecules per Fn molecule (Fn-FITC3). Fn-FITC3, similar to standard Fn, is correctly recruited into the cell matrix network. Also, Fn-FITC3 is proposed to be a powerful molecular tool to investigate Fn organization and cellular behavior concomitantly.

Abstract
Human ovarian surface epithelium and epithelial tumors express integrin alphavbeta5, which can interact with vitronectin. In addition, in vitro acquisition of cisplatin resistance by alphavbeta3-expressing IGROV1 cells is accompanied by cell-surface expression of integrin alphavbeta5. To further explore the role of alphavbeta5 in ovarian carcinoma cells, IGROV1 cells were stably transfected with a human beta5 integrin cDNA construct, and three beta5 transfectant clones were selected for the expression of alphavbeta5 integrin at their cell surface. Despite a delayed entry in the exponential phase of growth, beta5-transfectant cells kept a proliferation ability similar to that of parental cells, while their growth rate was hindered in the presence of an anti-alphavbeta5 blocking antibody. Only simultaneous blockade of alphavbeta3 and alphavbeta5 by specific antibodies impeded the adhesion to vitronectin of beta5 transfectants and of the beta5-expressing cisplatin-resistant variant IGROV1-R10, suggesting that the two heterodimers cooperated in the regulation of this process. Cell surface expression of alphavbeta5 resulted in an attenuation of alphavbeta3-mediated migration on vitronectin. Alphavbeta5 participated to migration events in the absence of exogenous growth factors only in one transfectant clone and in IGROV1-R10 cells. Finally, the response to cisplatin was not significantly modified in beta5 transfectants when compared to IGROV1 parental cells.

Abstract
Several lines of evidence suggest that vascularization plays an important role in the growth, local expansion and dissemination of ovarian epithelial tumours. However, the interaction of ovarian carcinoma cells with the endothelium remains poorly understood. To investigate adhesive events underlying this process, we used an in vitro model of cocultures between the IGROV1 human ovarian adenocarcinoma cell line and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). IGROV1 cells were shown to adhere rapidly on the HUVECs monolayer. Adhesion was inhibited by anti-alphav integrin and anti-Vn blocking antibodies, but not by anti-beta1 integrin antibodies. Anchorage of carcinoma cells led to the rupture of endothelial integrity, as revealed by the formation of holes in the monolayer and by the disappearance of the interendothelial VE-Cadherin network. Considering the ability of ovarian carcinoma to disseminate by a haematogenous way, these in vitro events could mimic a preliminary step for carcinoma cells crossing the endothelial barrier to extravasate.

Abstract
The growth of ovarian carcinoma is dependent upon their vascularistion, but the interaction of ovarian cancer cells with the endothelium and their invasion through an endothelial environment remain poorly understood at the molecular level. To investigate adhesive events underlying this process with focusing on the role of alphav integrins and MT1MMP-MMP2 proteinases, we used in vitro models of cocultures of human ovarian adenocarcinoma cell lines (IGROV1 and SKOV3) with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Immunostaining of HUVECs revealed the network organisation of fibrillar fibronectin (Fn) and pericellular vitronectin (Vn). During coculture, IGROV1 and SKOV3 cells gain access to subendothelial basement membrane of HUVECs and dislocated endothelial Fn without affecting endothelial Vn. Transmigration assays revealed that tumour cells invade Vn and, with an higher efficiency, Fn. Our data also highlighted that ovarian carcinoma cells migrated through the Fn-rich HUVEC-ECM. The expression of MMP2 and MT1-MMP was revealed in tumour cells within an endothelial environment. Furthermore, we found that cell migration through the endothelial ECM was almost totally dependent on alphav integrin function, whereas beta1 integrins were not solicited. In addition, inhibitors of MMP2 activity (alone or combined with anti-alphav integrin MAb) or TSRI265 (which blocks MMP2-alphavbeta3 association) were found to impede this process. Finally, alphav integrins, MT1-MMP and MMP2 were found in ovarian carcinoma cells within the 3-dimensional architecture of intraperitoneal tumour nodes collected from nude mice xenografted with IGROV1 or SKOV3 cell lines or within human tumour tissues. alphav integrins therefore appear as essential to the migration properties of human ovarian carcinoma cells, especially in an endothelial environment, with MMP2 participating to this process.

Abstract
Bacterial adherence to mammalian cells and their internalization are thought to participate in Pseudomonas aeruginosa pathogenicity. In this study, we explored the role of alpha5beta1 and alphavbeta5 integrins and their natural ligands, fibronectin (Fn) and vitronectin (Vn), in P. aeruginosa interaction with epithelial cells by using the PAK reference bacterial strain, A549 respiratory, and SKOV-3 human ovarian cell lines. The host cell cytoskeleton and cellular tyrosine kinases seem to be solicited during the PAK-respiratory cell interaction: cytochalasin D and genistein decreased the bacterial adherence and internalization. Blocking antibodies to alphavbeta5 integrins were the only antibodies tested to have inhibitory activity against PAK adherence to A549 cells. PAK internalization by A549 and SKOV-3 cells was markedly decreased in the presence of blocking antibodies to Vn and alphavbeta5 integrins. Addition of Vn in excess restored PAK invasion of both A549 and SKOV-3 cells in the presence of anti-Vn antibodies. Immunofluorescence experiments revealed that, in the presence of bacteria, the Vn fibrillar network disappeared, and alphavbeta5 staining was concentrated in sites where adherent bacteria were present. Taken together, these findings suggest that alphavbeta5 integrins, and their natural ligand Vn, are involved in PAK entry into human epithelial cells.

Abstract
Like the majority of tumor cells, ovarian cancer cell growth is critically dependent on their neovascularization. Adhesion molecules and cellular events that lead to ovarian tumor cell interactions with endothelial extracellular matrix surrounding the vasculature are poorly identified. To understand the role of alphavbeta3 integrin and its ligand fibronectin in this process, we used in vitro coculture models with IGROV1 human ovarian adenocarcinoma cell line and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Adhesion assays revealed a strong ability of IGROV1 cells to adhere to HUVEC-ECM. alphavbeta3 is mainly implicated and seems to cooperate with alpha5beta1 integrin in this event. Immunofluorescence staining revealed the presence of alphavbeta3 and alpha5beta1 in IGROV1 cells adhering on HUVEC-ECM at regions of cell sub-stratum contacts. Furthermore, our data showed the absence of fibronectin staining in IGROV1 cells and the disruption of the HUVEC-ECM fibrillar fibronectin network under IGROV1 cell influence. In situ experiments in ovarian neoplastic tissue corroborated the absence of fibronectin in the tumor and its strong detection in vasculature. These findings suggest the active participation of alphavbeta3 and alpha5beta1 integrins and the reorganization of endothelial fibronectin during the adhesion of IGROV1 cells to HUVEC-ECM whereas IGROV1 cells seem to be unable to synthesize fibronectin. Thus, fibronectin integrin receptors expressed by ovarian tumor cells and endothelial fibronectin may be of importance in ovarian carcinoma neovascularization and during tumor-vasculature interactions.
