Introducción: la tercera causa de muerte ginecológica es cáncer de ovario (CO), la detección temprana es fundamental para reducir mortalidad. El objetivo es establecer asociación entre senescencia en cultivos de tejido epitelial de ovario (ESO) mediante expresión de enzima ßgalactosidasa/normalizada y factores de riesgo reconocidos para CO. Métodos: estudio descriptivo observacional con fase exploratoria de datos proporcionados por “TRF2” segunda fase; muestra 29 tejidos de mujeres con ooforectomia condiciones benignas, analizadas estadísticamente con confianza del 95%, software SPSS versión 17, datos se presentan con desviación estándar, promedio, mediana (velocidad de crecimiento celular y ßgal/Normalizada) y porcentajes (variables categóricas). Realizo comparación con t-student, test de normalidad con Shapiro Wilks y asociación mediante análisis multivariado. Resultados: encuentra evidencia estadísticamente significativa (p < 0,05) para asociación entre antecedente familiar de otros tipos de cáncer con cáncer gástrico (IC95%: -2,84, -0,23) y cáncer de seno (IC95%: -3,39, -0,38); no tener régimen de afiliación en salud (vinculado) (IC95%: -3,67 -0,014); uso de método anticonceptivo de barrera (IC95%: -3,95, -0,07); consumo de embutidos (IC95%: -3,30, -0,21) y enlatados (IC95%: -3,62, -0,030) 1 a 3 veces/semana y consumo de alcohol (IC95%: -2,33, -0,33) con aumento expresión ßgal/Normalizada. Discusión: senescencia es antitumorigénica a edades tempranas, en avanzadas es protumorigénica, cuando hay mucha acumulación de células senescentes en tejido, éstas cambian su perfil senector produciendo sustancias que afectan a las vecinas, lo que lleva a transformación tumoral. Esta investigación es novedosa.

Introduction: A growing biological research field is the cellular senescence, a mechanism that has been associated, under certain circumstances, with malignant transformation. Given the high incidence of ovarian cancer and its main origin from the ovarian surface epithelium, as well as the possibility that an epithelial-mesenchymal transition occurs, we evaluated both the in vitro growth of stromal fibroblasts from the ovarian cortex and their β-galactosidase activity at pH 6, enzyme whose expression is considered as a marker of replicative senescence. Methods: 48 samples of ovarian cortical fibroblasts from donors without a history of cancer were serially cultured until the end of their replicative life. β-galactosidase activity at pH 6 was quantified in each passage by the chemiluminiscent method. As control, we used ovarian epithelial cell cultures from the same donors. The enzyme activity was also evaluated in fibroblasts previously induced to senescence by exposure to hydrogen peroxide. Results: The analysis of the enzyme activity and the replicative capacity taken together showed that the fibroblast cultures reached the senescent state at passages 4-5, as what happened with the control epithelial cells. Fibroblasts induced to senescence showed high variability in the values of enzymatic activity. Conclusions: The similarity between both types of cells in reaching the senescent state deserves to be taken into account in relation to the epithelialmesenchymal transition that has been proposed to explain their behavior in the genesis of cancer arising from ovarian surface epithelium. Low β-galactosidase activity values at pH 6 would suggest possible inactivation of the response pathways to oxidative stress.
