Han et al. [75] detected a significant downregulation of miR‐144 expression in the serum and tumor samples of colorectal cancer patients, however, the expression of C‐X‐C motif chemokine ligand 11 (CXCL11), a regulator of chronic inflammation, was significantly increased [76, 77]. This evidence concerns the gene CXCL11 and colorectal cancer.
