RNA m6A methylation regulators in ovarian cancer

Abstract: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant RNA modification of mammalian mRNAs and plays a vital role in many diseases, especially tumours. In recent years, m6A has become the topic of intense discussion in epigenetics. M6A modification is dynamically regulated by methyltransferases, demethylases and RNA-binding proteins. Ovarian cancer (OC) is a common but highly fatal malignancy in female. Increasing evidence shows that changes in m6A levels and the dysregulation of m6A regulators are associated with the … Show more

“…There are more than 150 types of RNA modification methods reported, among which m1A, m6A, m5C, etc., are the most common and play an important role in the occurrence and development of tumors. Guo et al has found that YTHDF1 regulates the translation of eIF3C in an m6A-dependent manner, enhances protein synthesis, and promotes tumorigenesis of ovarian cancer cells [ 31 ]. The study by Whongsiri et al [ 32 ] found that m5C was decreased in BLCA tissues, but the expression of 8-OHdG, H3K9me3, and HP1 α increased, indicating that the bladder tissues of BLCA patients have overall DNA hypomethylation, increased oxidative stress, and inhibitory chromatin changes.…”

“…Conversely, erasers remove m6A from the mRNA to cause the modification, preventing readers from recognizing and playing its molecular biological roles, thereby up-regulating or down-regulating the expression of oncogene and tumor suppressor gene[ 24 ]. Some m6A regulators are abnormally expressed in OC, such as YTHDF1, YTHDF2, METTL3, ALKBH5 etc., and promote or disrupt the development or maintenance of tumour phenotypes [ 25 ]. As the most common mRNA and lncRNA modification, m6A methylation plays different roles in a variety of tumors, including occurrence, proliferation, invasion, and metastasis [ 3 , 24 , 26 ].…”

“…In addition, m6A modification is also found in most ncRNAs, including miRNA, lncRNA, and circRNA, which participated in multiple roles in chromatin remodeling, transcription, posttranscriptional modifications, and signal transduction (Yang et al, 2020). M6A is dynamically and reversibly regulated by an m6A regulator, including methyltransferases (writers), demethylases (erasers), and binding proteins (readers) to add, remove, or recognize m6A-modified sites, respectively, thereby altering important biological processes accordingly (Guo et al, 2021). The m6A methyltransferases (writers) mediate the process of methylation modification of RNA, which mainly includes methyltransferaselike 3 (METTL3), methyltransferase-like 14 (METTL14), and Wilms' tumor 1-associating protein (WTAP) (Meyer and Jaffrey, 2017).…”
