Summary

Chemoresistance has become a leading cause of mortality in breast cancer patients and is one of the major obstacles for improving the clinical outcome. Long noncoding RNAs play important roles in breast cancer tumorigenesis and chemoresistance. However, the involvement and regulation of lncRNAs in breast cancer chemoresistance are not completely understood. Here, we reported that Linc00839 was localized in the nucleus and upregulated in chemoresistant breast cancer cells and tissues, and high level of Linc00839 was associated with a poor prognosis. Knockdown of Linc00839 significantly suppressed proliferation, invasion, and migration, sensitized cells to paclitaxel in vitro and inhibited transplant tumor development in vivo. Mechanistically, we found that Myc could directly bind to the pro
