Impact of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification on immunity

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2022
AbstractN6-methyl-adenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent modification on mRNAs and long noncoding RNAs (lnRNAs) in higher eukaryotes. Modulation of m6A relies on m6A writers, erasers and readers. m6A modification contributes to diverse fundamental biological functions at the molecular, cellular, and physiological levels.

TRMT6‐Mediated m1A Modification of CDK9 mRNA Is a Dual‐Pronged Pathogenic Driver for HBV‐Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
TRMT6‐mediated m1A modification in CDK9 mRNA enhances its mRNA stability and translation efficiency, thereby increasing the protein levels of CDK9. Upregulated CDK9 promotes the progression of HCC by elevating the levels of oncogenic factors including p‐STAT3, MCL1, and BCL‐2. On the other hand, CDK9 phosphorylates TARDBP at Ser254 to activate HBV core

HSP90 inhibitors stimulate DNAJB4 protein expression through a mechanism involving N6-methyladenosine. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Small-molecule inhibitors for the 90-kDa heat shock protein (HSP90) have been extensively exploited in preclinical studies for the therapeutic interventions of human diseases accompanied with proteotoxic stress.

BGN/MDK Axis in the Melanoma Tumor Microenvironment Strengthens Tumor Malignancy by Modulating Cancer Cells and Cancer‐Associated Fibroblasts Crosstalk

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that m6A regulators cooperatively upregulate BGN in melanoma, promoting malignancy. Within the tumor microenvironment, CAFs show highest BGN expression. The BGN/MDK axis mediates cancer‐stroma crosstalk, driving normal fibroblast (NF) activation and enhancing the pro‐tumor effect of CAFs, highlighting a promising therapeutic target ...

Role of N6-methyladenosine modification in cancer

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2018
As the most abundant internal modification in eukaryotic messenger RNAs identified, N6-methyladenosine (m6A) has been shown recently to play essential roles in various normal bioprocesses. Evidence is emerging that m6A modification and its regulatory proteins also play critical roles in various cancers including leukemia, brain tumor, breast cancer and

m6A mRNA demethylase FTO regulates melanoma tumorigenicity and response to anti-PD-1 blockade [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Melanoma is one of the most deadly and therapy-resistant cancers. Here we show that N6-methyladenosine (m6A) mRNA demethylation by fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) increases melanoma growth and decreases response to anti-PD-1 blockade ...

Targeting Lactate and Lactylation in Cancer Metabolism and Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lactate, once deemed a metabolic waste, emerges as a central regulator of cancer progression. This review elucidates how lactate and its epigenetic derivative, protein lactylation, orchestrate tumor metabolism, immune suppression, and therapeutic resistance.

N6-Methyladenosines Modulate A-to-I RNA Editing [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2018
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) editing are two of the most abundant RNA modifications, both at adenosines. Yet, the interaction of these two types of adenosine modifications is largely unknown. Here we show a global A-to-I difference between m6A-positive and m6A-negative RNA populations.

m^6A RNA methylation promotes XIST-mediated transcriptional repression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The long non-coding RNA X-inactive specific transcript (XIST) mediates the transcriptional silencing of genes on the X chromosome. Here we show that, in human cells, XIST is highly methylated with at least 78 N^6-methyladenosine (m^6A) residues—a ...
