Interestingly, YTHDC1 ultimately combined with solute carrier family 7 member 5 (SLC7A5) and increased SLC7A5 mRNA stability to promote the proliferation and migration of colorectal cancer cells, implicating the critical role of LINC00857/YTHDC1/SLC7A5 axis in colorectal cancer progression [85]. This evidence concerns the gene SLC5A7 and colorectal cancer.
