Sumario: | RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation is known to be the most popular RNA modification in animals. Many research reports have elaborated on the effects of m6A regulators in medical practice, such as diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. M6A modification has evident impacts on many aspects of RNA metabolism, just like RNA splicing, processing, translation, and stability. M6A also has a magnificent role in numerous types of cancers. We analyzed the prostate cancer datasets, from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, for every recognized m6A regulator in their gene expression, DNA methylation status and copy number variations (CNVs). We also systematically analyzed the relationship between different m6A regulators and the prognosis of prostate cancer. The results illustrated considerable differences in the expression of various m6A regulators between the prostate and normal cancer samples. At the same time, there were evident differences in the expression of various m6A regulators in prostate cancers with different Gleason scores. Subsequently, we determined CBLL1, FTO, YTHDC1, HNRNPA2B1 as crucial m6A regulators of prostate cancer. Premised on the expression of CBLL1, we also identified potential therapeutic agents for prostate cancer, and knockdown of HNRNPA2B1 prominently inhibited prostate cells migration and invasion in vitro experiment. |
