Non-coding RNAs and exosomal ncRNAs in colorectal cancer by Yalda Zhoulideh

“…Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a complex disease with many genetic and epigenetic changes leading to dysregulation of cell signaling pathways. In recent years, increasing attention has been paid to the role of non-coding RNA (ncRNA) and exogenous ncRNA in the development and progression of CRC. ncRNAs play an essential role in the regulation of gene expression and cell function, and dysregulation of ncRNA expression is associated with the onset and progression of CRC. …”
