N -methyladenosine (mA) in mRNA has emerged as a crucial epitranscriptomic modification that controls cellular differentiation and pluripotency. Recent studies are pointing to a role for the RNA methylation program in cancer self-renewal and cell fate, making this a new and promising therapeutic avenue for investigation.
信使核糖核酸(mRNA)中的N-甲基腺苷(mA)已成为一种关键的表观转录组修饰,可控制细胞分化和多能性。最近的研究表明,RNA甲基化程序在癌症自我更新和细胞命运中发挥作用,使其成为一个新的、有前景的治疗研究途径。
