Research progress of circular RNA and N6-methyladenosine modification in colorectal cancer
Circular RNA (circRNA) and N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation modification have attracted much attention in the field of cancer research. CircRNAs represent a class of covalently closed-loop non-coding RNA (ncRNA) that are abundantly expressed in the cytoplasm. These molecules exhibit remarkable evolutionary conservation and exceptional stability, making them ideal candidates for regulatory functions. These unique properties enable circRNA to play a role in colorectal cancer (CRC), including modulation of gene expression and tumor cell biology. m6A modification is one of the most common modifications of eukaryotic messenger RNA (mRNA) and ncRNA. This dynamic modification system participates in virtually all aspects of circRNA metabolism, including biogenesis, intracellular trafficking, and turnover. At the same time, the biological function of circRNA can be involved in the regulation of the expression of m6A related enzymes. This review mainly reviews the interaction between circRNA and m6A modification, with particular emphasis on and their collective impact on CRC pathogenesis and progression.
