Integrated whole transcriptome and small RNA analysis revealed multiple regulatory networks in colorectal cancer

Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a global disease burden and a leading cause of cancer related deaths worldwide. The identification of aberrantly expressed messenger RNA (mRNA), long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), and microRNA (miRNA), and the resulting molecular interactions and signaling network...
