CERS6‐AS1 expression is upregulated in BC tissues and cells. A, The expression of CERS6‐AS1 in BC tissues (n = 1085) was higher than that in contiguous normal tissues (n = 291) in TCGA database. B, RT‐qPCR results revealed that expression of CERS6‐AS1 was higher in tumor tissues than in contiguous normal tissues (n = 72). C, Kaplan‐Meier survival curves described the relationship between CERS6‐AS1 expression and survival time of BC patients. D, RT‐qPCR results revealed that CERS6‐AS1 level was higher in BC cells (MDA‐MB‐436, MDA‐MB‐453, MCF‐7 and MDA‐MB‐231) than in normal human breast cells (MCF‐10A). *P < .05, **P < .01
