Abstract
Deficiency in homologous recombination repair (HRR) is frequently associated with hormone-responsive cancers, especially the epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) which shows defects of HRR in up to half of cases. However, whether there are molecular connections between estrogen signaling and HRR deficiency in EOC remains unknown. Methods: We analyzed the estrogen receptor (ER) binding profile in EOC cell lines and investigated its association with genome instability, HRR deficiency and sensitivity to chemotherapy using extensive public datasets and in vitro/in vivo experiments. Results: We found an inverse correlation between estrogen signaling and HRR activity in EOC, and the genome-wide collaboration between ER and the co-repressor CtBP. Though the non-classical AP-1-mediated ER signaling, their targets were highly enriched by HRR genes. We found that depleting ER in EOC cells up-regulates HRR activity and HRR gene expression. Consequently, estrogen signaling enhances the sensitivity of ovarian cancer cells to chemotherapy agents in vitro and in vivo. Large-scale analyses further indicate that estrogen replacement and ESR1 expression are associated with chemo-sensitivity and the favorable survival of EOC patients. Conclusion: These findings characterize a novel role of ER in mediating the molecular connection between hormone and HRR in EOC and encourage hormone replacement therapy for EOC patients.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
