Interaction between linc01615 and miR-491-5p regulates the survival and metastasis of colorectal cancer cells

Background: The 5-year survival of colorectal cancer (CRC) has had no obvious improvement during the past decades, although a significant progress in treatments has been established. The molecular mechanisms that drive the progression of CRC are still unclear. This study aims to determine the biological activities of linc01615 and its regulatory microRNAs in CRC cells.
