Abstract:
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the greatest threats to public health. Recent advances in whole-genome transcriptome analyses have enabled the identification of numerous members of a novel class of non-coding (nc)RNA, long ncRNA (lncRNA), which is broadly defined as RNA molecules that are >200 nt in length and lacking an open reading frame. In the present review, all lncRNAs associated with CRC are briefly summarized, with a particular focus on their potential roles as clinical biomarkers. CRC-associated lncRNAs involved in the underlying mechanisms of CRC progression are also initially included. This should benefit the development of novel markers and effective therapeutic targets for patients with CRC.
