This article analyzes the molecular mechanisms of colorectal cancer formation, factors of transformation of adenoma formation, pathogenesis and molecular nature of CRC. Subtypes based on transcription signatures allow for better refinement and provide insight into the development of subtype-specific treatment methods, which, in turn, can contribute to more effective treatment of this disease.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Колоректальный рак остается актуальной проблемой онкоколопроктологии и требует активных усилий по изучению факторов риска, механизмов формирования и поиска генетических составляющих, играющих ключевую роль в определении прогноза заболевания. В данной статье проанализированы молекулярные механизмы формирования колоректального рака, факторы трансформации формирования аденомы, патогенез и молекулярная природа колоректального рака. Классификация, основанная на транскрипционных сигнатурах, позволяет лучше уточнять подтип и дает представление о разработке методов лечения, специфичных для подтипа, что, в свою очередь, может способствовать более эффективному лечению этого заболевания.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>colorectal cancer</kwd><kwd>genetic subtypes</kwd><kwd>adenoma formation</kwd><kwd>colon cancer</kwd><kwd>carcinomas</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>колоректальный рак</kwd><kwd>генетические подтипы</kwd><kwd>формирование аденомы</kwd><kwd>рак толстой кишки</kwd><kwd>карциномы</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Starostin R.A., Gataullin B.I., Valitov B.R. et al.
