This review focuses on the mutual regulation of m(6)A and coding and non-coding RNAs, introducing the molecular mechanism of m(6)A methylation involved in regulation and its role in cancer treatment using common female malignant tumors as an example.
N-6-methyladenosine (m(6)A) is a major internal epigenetic modification in eukaryotic mRNA, which is dynamic and reversible. m(6)A is regulated by methylases (writers) and demethylases (erasers) and is recognized and processed by m(6)A-binding proteins (readers), which further regulate RNA transport, localization, translation, and degradation. It plays a role in promoting or suppressing tumors and has the potential to become a therapeutic target for malignant tumors. In this review, we focus on the mutual regulation of m(6)A and coding and non-coding RNAs and introduce the molecular mechanism of m(6)A methylation involved in regulation and its role in cancer treatment by taking common female malignant tumors as an example.
