Abstract
N6 -methyladenosine (m6 A) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are both crucial regulators in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumorigenesis. However, the pathological roles of m6 A and lncRNAs in NSCLC progression are still limited and undefined. Here, lncRNA ABHD11-AS1 was upregulated in NSCLC tissue specimens and cells and the ectopic overexpression was closely correlated with unfavorable prognosis of NSCLC patients. Functionally, ABHD11-AS1 promoted the proliferation and Warburg effect of NSCLC. Mechanistically, m6 A profile was analyzed by methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeRIP-Seq). MeRIP-Seq presented that there was m6 A modification site in ABHD11-AS1. m6 A methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) installed the m6 A modification and enhanced ABHD11-AS1 transcript stability to increase its expression. In conclusion, our findings highlight the function and mechanism of METTL3-induced ABHD11-AS1 in NSCLC and inspire the understanding of m6 A and lncRNA in cancer biology.
