Abstract:N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) methylation is involved in various pathological processes. Our previous study found abnormal expression of the methyltransferases enzyme METTL3 in aging kidney tissues, resulting in renal fibrosis and aging. In this study, we aim to elucidate its regulatory mechanisms in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) by establishing a conditional METTL3 knockout model. We observed elevated m6A levels in the kidney of mice with type I diabetes and in cultured mouse podocytes exposed to advanced glycatio… Show more
