Regarding proliferation, on 54 surgical specimens of epithelial ovarian carcinoma a positive correlation was found on tumoral cells between immunoreactivity to CX3CL1 and a high staining intensity of Ki-67 and GILZ (glucocorticoid-induced leucine zipper), a promoter of cell cycle involved on progression and proliferation on ovarian cancer 69. Here, CX3CL1 is linked to ovarian carcinoma.
