miRNAs are differentially expressed in normal and tumour tissues in many types of cancers, including CRC.19, 20, 21 miR-483 and miR-551 have been validated as anti-oncogenes of CRC.22 We suspect that there may be some new miRNAs that are differentially expressed and regulate FUT5 and FUT6 in CRC. Here, FUT6 is linked to colorectal carcinoma.
