The lncRNA ‘UCA1’ modulates the response to chemotherapy of ovarian cancer through direct binding to miR‐27a‐5p and control of UBE2N levels

Ovarian cancer (OC) is the leading cause of death in patients with gynecologic cancers. Due to late diagnosis and resistance to chemotherapy, the 5‐year survival rate in patients with OC is below 40%. We observed that UCA1, a lncRNA previously reported to play an oncogenic role in several malignanci...
