| Cancer Name | hypopharyngeal carcinoma |
| ICD-0-3 | C13 |
| Methods | qPCR, RNAi, Cell cycle assay, Cell migration and invasion assay etc. |
| Sample | HSCC tissues, cell line (FaDu) |
| Expression Pattern | up-regulated |
| Function Description | We confirmed the upregulation of UCA1 in HSCC by assessing its expression levels in a cohort of 53 patient tumors and paired non-tumor samples. In addition, we found that high UCA1 expression was significantly associated with advanced T category, late clinical stage, greater lymphatic invasion, and worse prognosis. Furthermore, in vitro experiments demonstrated that UCA1 functioned as an oncogene by promoting the proliferation and invasion and preventing the apoptosis of HSCC cells. |
