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

LncRNA UCA1 was significantly upregulated in tamoxifen resistant breast cancer cells compared to tamoxifen sensitive cells. LCC2 and LCC9 cells transfected with UCA1 siRNA had significantly higher ratio of apoptosis after tamoxifen treatment. UCA1 siRNA significantly decreased the protein levels of p-AKT and p-mTOR in LCC2 and LCC9 cells. Enforced UCA1 expression substantially reduced tamoxifen induced apoptosis in MCF-7 cells, while rapamycin treatment abrogated the protective effect of UCA1.
