## Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) represent a new class of small noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs, RNAs that do not codify for proteins) that can regulate gene expression by targeting messenger RNAs of protein coding genes and other ncRNA transcripts. miRNAs were recently found to be involved in the pathophysio
## Abstract ## Background Recent studies have identified unique small ribonucleic acids called microRNAs (miRNAs) in colonic tumour tissue and blood that may accurately diagnose the presence of colorectal cancer and help predict disease recurrence. This review explores the potential role of these
## Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major cause of cancer mortality worldwide. There is an urgent need to search for specific and sensitive biomarkers for early diagnosis of CRC. We carried out a comprehensive systematic review of published studies that compared the miRNA expression profiles b
