Several studies have demonstrated that women with <jats:italic>BRCA<\/jats:italic> mutations have, on average, 50% fewer ciliated cells compared with general women. However, the role of tubal cilia loss in the development of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains unclear. Few specific studies have been found in linking <jats:italic>HYDIN<\/jats:italic>, a ciliary defect associated gene that encodes <jats:italic>HYDIN<\/jats:italic> axonemal central pair apparatus protein, which is involved in the transduction of Hedgehog (Hh) signal and is considered a cancer associated antigen, to ovarian cancer. Therefore, our study aimed to investigate the correlation between <jats:italic>HYDIN<\/jats:italic> gene mutations and tubal cilia loss in EOC.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A whole exome sequencing (WES), immunohistochemistry (IHC), western blot, and reverse transcription quantitative (RT q) PCR were performed in 80 patients with EOC and 50 cases of non ovarian cancer to detect the mutations and expression of tubal ciliary marker, ciliary morphology, and abnormal rate.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>We found that the incidence of tubal cilia loss was higher in EOC group with decreased expression of

loss is evident in epithelial fallopian tube carcinoma, and ciliary cells may be involved in the occurrence and development of EOC, and cilia-related gene <jats:italic>HYDIN<\/jats:italic> is expected to be a tumor marker for epithelial ovarian
