Abstract:Background: SOX2OT is a novel cancer associated long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) with higher expression in variable tumor tissues, including esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). It also plays an important function in embryonic neuronal development. Regarding its function in both stemness and carcinogenesis, here, we aimed to investigate its expression and function in tumorspheres of the esophagus using the RNAi method. Material & Methods: Two esophageal squamous cancer cells (ESCC): KYSE30 and YM1 cells … Show more
“…This mechanism also facilitated cisplatin resistance in PDX and CDX (KYSE450 and KYSE150) ( 119 ). Furthermore, lncRNA SOX2 overlapping transcript (SOX2OT) was discovered to enhance the expression of stem cell-related genes, sphere formation ability and docetaxel resistance in KYSE30 and YM1 cells ( 120 ).…”
