Abstract
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) represents the most prevalent and significant internal modification in mRNA, with its critical role in gene expression regulation and cell fate determination increasingly recognized in recent research. The immune system, essential for defense against infections and maintaining internal stability through interactions with other bodily systems, is significantly influenced by m6A modification. This modification acts as a key post-transcriptional regulator of immune responses, though its effects on different immune cells vary across diseases. This review delineates the impact of m6A modification across major system-related cancers-including those of the respiratory, digestive, endocrine, nervous, urinary reproductive, musculoskeletal system malignancies, as well as acute myeloid leukemia and autoimmune diseases. We explore the pathogenic roles of m6A RNA modifications within the tumor immune microenvironment and the broader immune system, highlighting how RNA modification regulators interact with immune pathways during disease progression. Furthermore, we discuss how the expression patterns of these regulators can influence disease susceptibility to immunotherapy, facilitating the development of diagnostic and prognostic models and pioneering new therapeutic approaches. Overall, this review emphasizes the challenges and prospective directions of m6A-related immune regulation in various systemic diseases throughout the body.
