Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Colorectal cancer (CRC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality globally, necessitating the development of innovative treatment strategies. Recent research has underscored the significant role of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in CRC pathogenesis, offering new avenues for diagnosis and therapy. In this review, we delve into the intricate roles of various ncRNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs), in CRC progression, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), metastasis, and drug resistance. We highlight the interaction of these ncRNAs with and regulation of key signaling pathways, such as Wnt/β-catenin, Notch, JAK-STAT, EGFR, and TGF-β, and the functional relevance of these interactions in CRC progression. Additionally, the review highlights the emerging applications of nanotechnology in enhancing the delivery and efficacy of ncRNA-based therapeutics, which could address existing challenges related to specificity and side effects. Future research directions, including advanced diagnostic tools, targeted therapeutics, strategies to overcome drug resistance, and the integration of personalized medicine approaches are discussed. Integrating nanotechnology with a deeper understanding of CRC biology offers the potential for more effective, targeted, and personalized strategies, though further research is essential to validate these approaches. • Non-coding RNAs drive EMT in CRC, impacting metastasis, invasion, and drug resistance. • Wnt, TGF-β, and EGFR pathways interact with ncRNAs, modulating CRC progression. • Nanotechnology improves specificity and delivery of ncRNA-based CRC therapies. • CircRNAs and lncRNAs emerge as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in CRC. • Combining ncRNAs with nanomedicine advances precision medicine in CRC treatment.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
