Deskripsi

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a reversible mRNA modification with important roles in cancer biology and immunoregulation. Here, the authors show that myeloid-specific deletion of Mettl3, the catalytic subunit of the methyltransferase complex, promotes tumor growth and metastasis in preclinical tumor models, influencing macrophage reprogramming and attenuating PD-1 blockade.
