LINC00659 and colorectal carcinoma: The results displayed that LINC00659 levels in CRC tissues were stronger than in adjacent cancer tissues (Fig. 3a , P< 0.05) and further analysis found that high expression of LINC00659 predicted a relatively poor prognosis while low expression of LINC00659 is associated with better prognosis (Fig. 3b , P< 0.05).
