Recently, miR-124 has been regarded as a critical modulator of colorectal cancer. We here summarize the studies on the role and mechanism of miR-124 in colorectal cancer. They indicate that miR-124 is methylated during carcinogenesis and functions as a tumor-suppressor in colorectal cancer. miR-124 might serve as a potential diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target in colorectal cancer in the foreseeable future.
