Abstract Progestin and adipoQ receptor family member III (PAQR3), a member of the PAQR family, is frequently
downregulated in different types of human cancer. However, its expression and functions in esophageal cancer
are still unknown. This study aimed to explore the expression of PAQR3 in esophageal cancer cell lines and
to investigate the role of PAQR3 in the development of esophageal cancer. Our data showed that PAQR3 is
expressed in low amounts in human esophageal cancer cell lines. Overexpression of PAQR3 significantly suppressed the proliferation, migration, and invasion of esophageal cancer cells. In addition, overexpression of More >
