With great fatality rates, esophageal cancer is among the most common malignancies worldwide. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), especially GIHCG, have been shown in recent research to be quite important in tumor development. GIHCG is increased in esophageal cancer tissues and cell lines, researchers have shown, which promotes cancer cell proliferation, invasion, and migration while suppressing death. In particular, GIHCG acts as a sponge for miR-29b-3p, which causes the target gene ANO1 to be upregulated—a crucial role in esophageal cancer pathogenies. This intricate interaction was confirmed through luciferase reporter assays, which measured the regulatory dynamics between these molecular players in relevant cell lines like TE-10.

Reduce errors
The Luciferase Reporter Cell Line - TE-10 is very convenient to use. It does not require invasive operations, just mix cells with luciferase substrates and use specific instruments for detection. This non-invasive method reduces experimental errors and also reduces damage to cells.
