In the ONCOMINE, overexpression of hnRNPA1 was found in colorectal adenocarcinoma compared with normal samples as follows: COAD with fold change = 2.424, rectal adenoma with fold change = 2.120 and rectal mucinous adenocarcinoma with fold change = 1.620 (26–28). Here, HNRNPA1 is linked to colorectal adenocarcinoma.
