Abstract

RNA modifications play critical roles in important biological processes. However, the functions of N 6 -methyladenosine (m 6 A) mRNA modification in cancer biology and cancer stem cells remain largely unknown. Here, we show that m 6 A mRNA modification is critical for glioblastoma stem cell (GSC) self-renewal and tumorigenesis. Knockdown of METTL3 or METTL14, key components of the RNA methyltransferase complex, dramatically promotes human GSC growth, self-renewal, and tumorigenesis. In contrast, overexpression of METTL3 or inhibition of the RNA demethylase FTO suppresses GSC growth and self-renewal. Moreover, inhibition of FTO suppresses tumor progression and prolongs lifespan of GSC-grafted mice substantially. m 6 A sequencing reveals that knockdown of METTL3 or METTL14 induced changes in mRNA m 6 A enrichment and altered mRNA expression of genes (e.g., ADAM19 ) with critical biological functions in GSCs. In summary, this study identifies the m 6 A mRNA methylation machinery as promising therapeutic targets for glioblastoma.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
