N6-Methyladenosine methylation modification in breast cancer: current insights
Abstract
Abstract Breast cancer is the most common cancer type among women. Despite advanced treatment strategies, some patients still face challenges in disease control, prompting the exploration of new therapeutic approaches. N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) methylation modification regulates RNA and plays a crucial role in various tumor biological processes, closely linked to breast cancer occurrence, development, prognosis, and treatment. M6A regulators impact breast cancer progression, development, and drug resistance by modulating RNA metabolism and tumor-related pathways. Researchers have begun to understand the regulatory mechanisms of m6A methylation in breast cancer. This paper discusses the roles of m6A regulators in breast cancer progression, prognosis, and treatment, offering new perspectives for breast cancer diagnosis and treatment.
