We hypothesised that the upregulation of m6A-modified lncRNAs related to prognosis might have a hidden connection with the KRAS-BRAF-EGFR signalling pathway and induce tumour cell angiogenesis, cell proliferation, invasion and metastasis, enriching the targets for the treatment of CRC (Martinelli et al., 2020). Here, EGFR is linked to colorectal carcinoma.
