Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth most deadly cancer globally. Long noncoding RNA MNX1-AS1 has been proven to play a regulatory role in various human cancers. The present research aimed to explore the MNX1-AS1 function in CRC and the corresponding mechanism. A series of experiments were conducted to detect the effects of MNX1-AS1 and miR-744-5p on the biological function of CRC cells, including quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, CCK-8, transwell, wound healing assay, Western blot, and dual-luciferase report assay. MNX1-AS1 was elevated in CRC tissues and cell lines. Si-MNX1-AS1 inhibited cell viability, invasion, migration, and the protein expressions of N-cadherin and Vimentin but promoted the protein expression of E-cadherin. MiR-744-5p bound to MNX1-AS1. MiR-744-5p inhibitor had the opposite effect of si-MNX1-AS1. Cotransfection of miR-744-5p inhibitor and si-MNX1-AS1 recovered the effects mentioned above. In conclusion, MNX1-AS1/miR-744-5p axis plays a pivotal role in the viability, invasion, migration, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of colorectal cancer cells.
