Methods: We used two patient-derived high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) cell lines with low (13781) and high (14433) mRNA expression levels of the gene encoding 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 24-hydroxylase CYP24A1, one of the main target genes of calcitriol. Here, CYP24A1 is linked to ovarian serous adenocarcinoma.
