NAFLD is a series of liver disorders, and it has become the most prevalent hepatic disease to date. However, there are no approved and effective pharmaceuticals for NAFLD owing to a poor understanding of its pathological mechanisms. While emerging studies have demonstrated that m6A modification is highly associated with NAFLD. In this review, we summarize the general profile of NAFLD and m6A modification, and the role of m6A regulators including erasers, writers, and readers in NAFLD. Finally, we also highlight the clinical significance of m6A in NAFLD.

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent post-transcriptional modification in eukaryotic RNA and is also present in various viral RNAs, where it plays a crucial role in regulating the viral life cycle. However, the molecular mechanisms through which viruses regulate host RNA m6A methylation are not fully understood. In this study, we reveal that SARS-CoV-2 and HCoV-OC43 infection enhance host m6A modification by activating the mTORC1 signaling pathway.

N6-methyladenosine (mA) modification is the most common post-transcriptional modifications, which is critical for the metabolism of ferroptosis-related RNAs. Yet, the impact of mA modification on ferroptosis in cholangiocarcinoma (CC) is far from clear. Public databases and tissue arrays were applied to explore the clinical relevance of METTL16 in CC.

Chemoresistance severely deteriorates the prognosis of advanced gastric cancer (GC) patients. Several studies demonstrated that (HP)-positive GC patients showed better outcomes after receiving chemotherapy than HP-negative ones. This study aims to confirm the role of HP in GC chemotherapy and to study the underlying mechanisms.
