   Cancer Name breast cancer
   ICD-0-3 C50  
   Methods qPCR, Western blot, Dual-luciferase reporter assay, Flow cytometry assay etc.
   Sample cell lines (MCF-7, BT474, LCC2, and LCC9)
   Expression Pattern up-regulated
   Function Description

Our findings reveal that tamoxifen induces UCA1 upregulation in ER-positive breast cancer cells in a HIF1a-dependent manner. UCA1 upregulation results in significantly enhanced tamoxifen resistance. The upregulated UCA1 sponges miR-18a, which is a negative regulator of HIF1a. Therefore, UCA1 upregulation is further enhanced through a miR-18a-HIF1a feedback loop.

   Title Long non-coding RNA UCA1 enhances tamoxifen resistance in breast cancer cells through a miR-18a-HIF1a feedback regulatory loop.
