Research Progress on the Role of M6A Methylation Modification in the Genesis and Development of GC
Abstract
Modifcation of M6ARNAmethylation is the most prevalent form of RNAediting in eukaryotic organisms. The m6A-methylated regulatory protein is intimately associated with biological processes, including GC proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. This protein is anticipated to serve as a target for the clinical treatment of GC in the future. This comprehensive review delineates the most recent advance-ments and clinical implications of m6Aaberrant modifcation in GC, aiming to furnish a novel research avenue for the exploration of GC’s future direction.
