A qRT-PCR was applied to detect the transfection efficiency of si-RNAs targeting THAP9-AS1 (si-THAP9-AS1#1 or si-THAP9-AS1#2) in Eca-109 and KYSE-30 cells. B and C CCK-8 and colony formation assays were used to assess the effect of THAP9-AS1 depletion on cell proliferation. D and E A wound-healing assay were conducted to detect the influence of THAP9-AS1 knockdown on ESCC cell migration capability. F and G Transwell assays were employed to evaluate the migration and invasion abilities of Eca-109 and KYSE-30 cells with THAP9-AS1 knockdown. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
