Abstract:Gastric cancer is the most common gastrointestinal tumor in China, and its therapeutic effect is not good. More than 150 kinds of RNA modifications have been discovered, and the dynamic modification of m6A is the most abundant one in RNA modification. m6A modification plays an important role in RNA metabolism and is involved in many biological processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. m6A modification imbalance also plays an important role in the occurrence and development of gastric cancer, in-depth study of the molecular mechanism of gastric cancer can provide a new strategy for the treatment of gastric cancer.
