In this study, we evaluated serum preoperative proinflammatory cytokine levels and investigated the correlation between preoperative interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 levels and survival of patients with esophageal cancer.

Taken together, these data demonstrate that miR-203 is a tumor suppressor in EC cells and its expression level could potentially be used as a prognostic indicator for EC patient outcomes.
Overexpression of <i>VEGF-C</i> and <i>MMP-9</i> and positive association with advanced esophageal cancer and invading ESCC cells (Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO): GSE21293).
Recombined lentiviral vector containing BECLIN-1 was used to transfect human esophageal carcinoma Eca109 cells and establish stable cell line. qRT-PCR was used to detect BECLIN-1 mRNA level in the transfected Eca109 cells, CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell proliferation.
Although the anticancer activity of (S)-10-Hydroxycamptothecin (HCPT), a TOP I specific inhibitor, has been reported in various cancers, the effect of HCPT on esophageal cancer is yet to be examined.
Subsequent qRT-PCR validation in ECa cell lines and tissues indicated a significant increase in HOXA9 expression and a negative correlation with microRNA-186-5p.

In vitro, knockdown of CCAT2 enhanced radiosensitivity of EC cells and promoted apoptosis by increasing Bax/Bcl2 and active‑caspase 3/caspase 3 following X‑ray treatment.
These results showed that CCAT2 promoted the radiotherapy resistance of EC cells via negative regulation of the miR‑145/p70S6K1 and the p53 signaling pathways and associated elements may be potential targets for improving the sensitivity of EC radiotherapy.

Each website was then evaluated using the JAMA benchmarks, DISCERN tool, presence or absence of the Health On The Internet (HON) seal and the Esophageal Cancer Specific Content Score (ECSCS).
The effects of Rad51 knockdown and overexpression on esophageal cancer growth, migration, and invasion were examined using TE8, CE81T, and KYSE70 cells.
