RESUMO
Cisplatin resistance remains one of the major obstacles when treating epithelial ovarian cancer. Because oxaliplatin and nedaplatin are effective against cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer in clinical trials and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is associated with cisplatin resistance, we investigated whether overcoming cisplatin resistance by oxaliplatin and nedaplatin was associated with the STAT3 pathway in ovarian cancer. Alamar blue, clonogenic, and wound healing assays, and Western blot analysis were used to compare the effects of platinum drugs in SKOV-3 cells. At an equitoxic dose, oxaliplatin and nedaplatin exhibited similar inhibitory effects on colony-forming ability and greater inhibition on cell motility than cisplatin in ovarian cancer. Early in the time course of drug administration, cisplatin increased the expression of pSTAT3 (Tyr705), STAT3α, VEGF, survivin, and Bcl-XL, while oxaliplatin and nedaplatin exhibited the opposite effects, and upregulated pSTAT3 (Ser727) and STAT3ß. The STAT3 pathway responded early to platinum drugs associated with cisplatin resistance in epithelial ovarian cancer and provided a rationale for new therapeutic strategies to reverse cisplatin resistance.

Fourteen feline parvovirus (FPV) strains isolated from cats, mink and dogs were comparatively examined on their antigenic and genetic diversities by using monoclonal antibodies against feline panleukopenia virus (FPLV) and restriction enzyme analysis of viral DNA. Mink enteritis virus (MEV) strains recently isolated in the northeastern area of the People's Republic of China were found to possess more similar antigenic and genetic properties to the antigenic variant virus of canine parvovirus (CPV) ("new" antigenic type CPV), than to FPLV strains and MEV Abashiri strain of Japan. A feline isolate detected in normal cat feces was considered to be rather CPV because of its antigenic and genetic characteristics. An early isolate of "new" antigenic type CPV strains showed a similar cleavage pattern to those of "old" antigenic type CPV strains when digested with HinfI. The results including some features above-mentioned suggest the presence of antigenic heterogeneities and genomic polymorphisms among FPV subspecies viruses.
