Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks as the third most prevalent contributor to global disease burden and represents the second highest mortality rate among all malignancies worldwide. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a new class of regulatory RNAs, which play a crucial role in the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer. Therefore, it is potentially important to use bioinformatics and machine learning methods to study novel biomarkers for CRC.
