LncRNA GAPLINC in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma - OTT
Background: The long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) GAPLINC, or gastric adenocarcinoma predictive long intergenic ncRNA, plays a carcinogenic role in a variety of different tumor types. There is limited information regarding the biological function of GAPLINC in the development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods: Surgical tissue samples of 40 patients undergoing ESCC radical surgery were collected, including ESCC tissues and corresponding adjacent normal tissues. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of lncRNA GAPLINC in the human ESCC cell line (TE...
