Accumulating evidence indicates that mA methyltransferase 3 (METTL3) plays a pivotal role in different malignancies including melanoma. However, the function and underlying mechanisms by which METTL3 contributes to the tumorigenesis of melanoma remain undocumented. The association of METTL3 and long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 3 (SNHG3) with clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis in patients with melanoma was analyzed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), Western blotting, and The Cancer Genome Atlas data sets.
