Long non-coding RNA breast cancer antiestrogen resistance 4 (lncRNA BCAR4) is an independent factor on the survival prognosis of patients with multiple cancers. However, the role of lncRNA BCAR4 in esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC) remains unknown. Here, we unraveled that lncRNA BCAR4 was upregulated in ESCC and predicted poor prognosis. Functionally, lncRNA BCAR4 knockdown induced cell apoptosis and G1/S arrest, while inhibited cell proliferation and migration in vitro; conversely, overexpressing lncRNA BCAR4 promoted proliferation...
