Integrative analyses of transcriptome sequencing identify novel functional lncRNAs in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. [PDF]
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have a critical role in cancer initiation and progression, and thus may mediate oncogenic or tumor suppressing effects, as well as be a new class of cancer therapeutic targets. We performed high-throughput sequencing of RNA

promoter methylation is associated with prognosis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is a commonly malignant tumor of digestive tract with poor prognosis. Previous studies suggested that forkhead box F2 ( FOXF2 ) could be a candidate gene for assessing and predicting the prognosis of human cancers ...

Clinicopathological significance of c-MYC in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is one of the most common malignant tumors. The oncogene c-MYC is thought to be important in the initiation, promotion, and therapy resistance of cancer.

RNA editing is induced by type I interferon in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
In recent years, abnormal RNA editing has been shown to play an important role in the development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, as such abnormal editing is catalyzed by ADAR (adenosine deaminases acting on RNA). However, the regulatory mechanism

Current Topics in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma [PDF]
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the most deadly cancers due to its extremely aggressive nature and poor survival rate. Central to East Asia is one of regions with the highest incidence of ESCC. In these five papers, the international leaders of ESCC in Asia have taken various approaches to ESCC. Lin et al.

Yin Yang 1 is associated with cancer stem cell transcription factors (SOX2, OCT4, BMI1) and clinical implication. [PDF]
The transcription factor Yin Yang 1 (YY1) is frequently overexpressed in cancerous tissues compared to normal tissues and has regulatory roles in cell proliferation, cell viability, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, metastasis and drug/immune resistance.
