HNF1A and colorectal cancer: Conclusion: In summary, our result reveals the novel mechanism in which m6A-mediated HNF1A-AS1/IGF2BP2/CCND1 axis promotes CRC cell cycle progression, along with competitively sponging miR-93-5p to upregulate CCND1, demonstrating its significant role in cell cycle regulation and suggesting that HNF1A-AS1 may act as a potential prognostic marker of colorectal cancer in the future.
