Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptors including LPA(1), LPA(2), and LPA(3) mediate lysophosphatidic acid signals. We analyzed the expression of LPA receptors, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and interleukin-8 in 97 patients from normal ovary to ovarian cancer, using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. LPA(2), LPA(3), and VEGF expression ratios significantly increased in cancer, compared to those in non-cancerous state (P<0.05). A significant correlation in the expression ratios between LPA(2) or LPA(3) and VEGF was found (gamma=0.617, P<0.0001; gamma=0.431, P<0.001) in patients with cancer. These results suggested that LPA(2) and LPA(3) may be involved in VEGF expression mediated by LPA signals in human ovarian oncogenesis.
