Another study comparing AAs and CAs in colorectal cancer (CRC) revealed that seven microRNAs (MIR137, MIR2682, MIR9‐3, MIR663A, MIR6130, MIR548AO, and MIR124) are hypermethylated in AAs, while MIR‐34B/C are hypermethylated in CA CRC (Wang et al. 2016). This evidence concerns the gene MIR663A and colorectal carcinoma.
