In addition, we confirmed that ectopic expression of miR-655 increased CDH1/E-cadherin expression at the mRNA and protein levels in an ESCC cell line, TE8, and an OSCC cell line, HSC2, (Fig. S4), although a morphological shift toward the epithelial phenotype in these cell lines was not observed (data not shown). The gene discussed is CDH1; the disease is esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
