Abstract
Kidney disease is marked by complex pathological mechanisms and significant therapeutic hurdles, resulting in high morbidity and mortality rates globally. A deeper understanding of the fundamental processes involved can aid in identifying novel therapeutic targets and improving treatment efficacy. Current comprehensive data analyses indicate the involvement of methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) and its role in RNA N6-methyladenosine methylation in various renal pathologies, including acute kidney injury, renal fibrosis, and chronic kidney disease. However, there is a paucity of thorough reviews that clarify the functional mechanisms of METTL3 and evaluate its importance in enhancing therapeutic outcomes. This review seeks to systematically examine the roles, mechanisms, and potential clinical applications of METTL3 in renal diseases. The findings presented suggest that METTL3 is implicated in the etiology and exacerbation of kidney disorders, affecting their onset, progression, malignancy, and responsiveness to chemotherapeutic agents through the regulation of specific genetic pathways. In conclusion, this review underscores a detrimental correlation between METTL3 and kidney diseases, highlighting the therapeutic promise of targeting METTL3. Additionally, it offers critical insights for researchers concerning the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment strategies for renal conditions.
