For instance, Yan et al, reported that a 4-lncRNA panel comprising UCA1, POU3F3, ESCCAL-1 and PEG10 constitutes a remarkable diagnostic tool for the accurate and reliable detection of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) since this multi-lncRNA panel was capable of distinguishing ESCC patients from healthy controls with a sensitivity of 80.20%, a specificity of 80.20% and an AUC of 0.85366. Here, CASC9 is linked to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
