However, the relationship between these mutations and resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy and the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In this study, we demonstrated that KRAS mutants confer resistance to platinum in NSCLC. Mechanistically, KRAS mutants mediate platinum resistance in NSCLC cells by activating ERK/JNK signaling, which inhibits ALKBH5 m6A demethylase activity by regulating post-translational modifications (PTMs) of ALKBH5. Consequently, the KRAS mutant leads to a global increase in m6A methylation of mRNAs, particularly DDB2 and XPC, which are essential for nucleotide excision repair. This methylation stabilized the mRNA of these two genes, thus enhancing NSCLC cells' ability to repair platinum-induced DNA damage and avoid apoptosis, thereby contributing to drug resistance. Furthermore, blocking KRAS-mutant-induced m6A methylation, either by overexpressing a SUMOylation-deficient mutant of ALKBH5, or by inhibiting METTL3 pharmacologically, significantly sensitizes KRAS-mutant NSCLC cells to platinum drugs in vitro and in vivo.
