Propofol postpones colorectal cancer development through circ_0026344/miR-645/Akt/mTOR signal pathway

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is responsible for thousands of slow and painful annual deaths. Propofol, an anesthetic, is commonly used in CRC surgery. The role of circularRNA0026344 (circ_0026344) in propofol-treated CRC remains unclear, which was further explored in this study. Real-time polymerase chai...
