IGF2 and colorectal carcinoma: To identify RBPs which related with the ability of MEK1-ERK pathway in the progression of CRC, we began by performing high-throughput RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) of 8 paired CRC with liver metastases samples, including primary tumor tissues(T), normal adjacent tissues(N) and liver metastatic tissues(M).; from this we identified insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 3 (IMP3) as one of the most dysregulated RBPs in CRC.
