Hence, we focused on the miRNAs found common between Targetscan and miRsystem, and we found that miR-21-5p, miR-30e-5p and miR-26b-5p as potential regulators of ST6GALNAC1 promoting CRC progression when overexpressed (Fig 2C and 2D). The gene discussed is ST6GALNAC1; the disease is colorectal carcinoma.
