Abstract:Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common type of gastrointestinal cancer. Genetic, epigenetic, and lifestyle factors have been implicated in the development of CRC. Non-coding RNAs such as HOX transcript antisense RNA (HOTAIR) and miR-3117genes have been associated with cell proliferation, progression, invasion, and metastasis as well as poor survival in several cancers. This study examines the potential association between the HOTAIR rs920778 and miR-3117variants and the clinicopathological feat… Show more
