Abstract
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is one of the most common post-transcriptional modifications of eukaryotic mRNA. The m6A modification accelerates mRNA metabolism and translation, and plays an important role in cell differentiation, embryonic development and stress response. As a reversible epigenetic modification, m6A modification plays an important role in many physiological and pathological processes. The m6A modification is closely related to the occurrence and progression of respiratory diseases, and the m6A modification regulatory factor may be a potential target for regulating respiratory diseases. This article reviews the role of m6A modification in the development of respiratory diseases such as lung cancer, acute lung injury (ALI), asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The purpose of m6A modification is to provide a reference for the pathogenesis of respiratory diseases and the study of targets.
