摘要: N6-甲基腺苷(m6A)甲基化作为真核生物 mRNA 中最丰富的表观遗传修饰,广泛参与进干细胞分化进程调控、哺乳动物发育、肿瘤产生和免疫调控等多种生命过程中。m6A甲基化过程是可逆性修饰,由甲基转移酶、去甲基化酶和甲基化阅读蛋白组成。近年来,多篇文章表明m6A修饰在口腔组织发育和疾病中起到了重要作用。本文综述m6A在口腔疾病的研究进展,重点讨论在牙、颌骨、关节、黏膜等组织的调控作用及机制。

Abstract: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent epigenetic modification in eukaryotic mRNAs and involves in multiple biological processes. As a reversible modification, the process m6A counts on three types of proteins: Writers, Erasers and Readers. Recently, emerging evidence elucidates the role of m6A modification in the development of oral tissues and progression of oral diseases. This review summarized the recent papers reporting the research progress of m6A in oral diseases, mainly discussing its regulation of tooth and mandible development, as well as temporomandibular arthritis and mucosal disorders.
