LncRNA ELFN1-AS1 promotes colon cancer occurrence and progression by regulating the miR-191-5p/ZBTB34 axis

Colon cancer (CC) is the fourth most common cancer worldwide and a major cause of cancer-related deaths. The long non-coding RNA ELFN1 antisense RNA 1 (ELFN1-AS1) has been reported to be a cancer driver in many human malignancies. The aim of this study is to investigate the function and mechanism of ELFN1-AS1 in CC.
