Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | esophageal cancer |
| ICD-0-3 | C15 |
| Methods | qPCR, Western blot, Luciferase Reporter Assays |
| Sample | esophageal cancer tissues, cell lines (KYSE30, KYSE150, TE-1, Eca-1, Eca-109) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | High lncRNA-HOTAIR expression was associated with significantly poorer overall survival in EC. Mechanistic investigations revealed lncRNA-HOTAIR promotes the EMT by acting as a miR-148a sponge to positively regulate Snail2 expression |
| Pubmed ID | 28441714 |
| Year | 2017 |
| Title | Long non-coding RNA HOTAIR functions as miRNA sponge to promote the epithelial to mesenchymal transition in esophageal cancer |
