The Overexpression of Folate Receptors in Gynecologic Oncology - a Diagnostic and Therapeutic Approach

Abstract:

Since the discovery of the overexpression of alpha folate receptors (α-FR) in different types of epithelial origin cancers, the arising implications in diagnosis, prognosis and therapy have been thoroughly studied. The α-FR is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein with high affinity for 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, the predominant plasma folate. The expression of FRα in healthy cells is found to be only on the apical surface, but the expression in numerous carcinomas of epithelial origin is 100-300 times higher than on healthy cells and it is in the order of 1-10 million receptor copies per cell. Due to the increased expression of α-FR in epithelial tumor cells, it has been emphasized that this receptor could represent a useful target for the development of new and selective anticancer drugs. For targeted delivery to FR expressing cells, it is involved the covalent linkage of folate to a variety of molecules, including chemotherapy or imaging agents. Exploiting the overexpression of α-FR in cervical dysplasia and cervical cancer, a new, cost effective and high sensitivity screening test has been developed.
Keywords:
folate receptor; gynecologic oncology; folate receptor-mediated staining procedures; cervical cancer screening.
