Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a common digestive tract malignant cancer with high incidence and mortality rate. Many studies have shown that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs are involved in the progression of various types of tumors. The lncRNA protein disulfide isomerase family A member 3 pseudogene 1 (PDIA3P1) promotes the progression of ESCC, but the molecular mechanism behind this is still unclear.

Background: Increasing evidence has indicated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been proven to regulate esophageal cancer progression. The lncRNA protein disulfide isomerase family A member 3 pseudogene 1 (PDIA3P1) has been shown to promote cancer stem cell properties; however, its mechanism of action remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the regulation of esophageal cancer stem cell properties by the interaction of PDIA3P1 with proteins.

Background: This paper examines the expression, function, and molecular mechanism of long non-coding ribonucleic acid (lncRNA) ARAP1 antisense RNA 1 (ARAP1-AS1) in lung cancer. Specifically, it aims to clarify the molecular mechanism of lncRNA ARAP1-AS1 that affects the occurrence and development of lung cancer, and provide a theoretical basis and molecular targets for targeted therapy or early diagnosis of lung cancer.

Methods: Fluorescence quantitative detection of lncRNA ARAP1-AS1 expression in lung cancer tissues and cell lines, and methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium (MTT), plate cloning experiment, and flow cytometry were used to detect the effect of knockdown of lncRNA ARAP1-AS1 on cell proliferation, clone formation, and the cell cycle, respectively.
