    Abstract:
    LncRNA DDX11 antisense RNA 1 (DDX11-AS1) is recognized as having an imperative oncogenic role in different types of human cancer. Nevertheless, the functions, as well as the basic mechanisms of DDX11-AS1 in the EMT process of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), are yet to be clarified. In this research, high DDX11-AS1 expression was detected in ESCC cells as well as tissues and was linked to the poor prognosis of patients with ESCC. DDX11-AS1 promoted cell proliferation, migration, invasion ability and epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) process in vitro. Mechanistic analysis depicted that DDX11-AS1 may function as a ceRNA through sponging miR-30d-5p to upregulate the expression of SNAI1 and ZEB2. Meanwhile, overexpression of DDX11-AS1 might cause the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway via targeting miR-30d-5p. On the whole, the findings of this research illustrate that DDX11-AS1 may act as an EMT-related lncRNA to advance ESCC progression through sponging miR-30d-5p to regulate SNAI1/ZEB2 expression and activate the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, which indicates that it might serve as a probable therapeutic target for ESCC.
