Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of RNA molecules that do not code for proteins but instead play regulatory roles in gene expression. Emerging evidence suggests that lncRNAs can influence autophagy and contribute to the development and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). Several lncRNAs have been identified as key players in modulating autophagy in CRC. The dysregulation of autophagy and non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in CRC suggests a complex interplay between these two factors in the pathogenesis of the disease. Modulating autophagy may sensitize cancer cells to existing therapies or improve the efficacy of new treatment approaches.
