m 6 A modification suppresses innate anti-tumour immunity in colorectal cancer by limiting alu-derived dsRNA accumulation

Abstract How cancer cells evade immune detection despite expressing immunostimulatory retroelement (RE) transcripts remains unclear. In cancer, endogenous REs that escape epigenetic silencing are transcribed and can form double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), which activates innate immune responses through viral mimicry. However, RNA-level mechanisms can limit this effect. Here we show that the m6A RNA methyltransferase METTL3 acts as a key regulator of this suppression in colorectal cancer (CRC).

1 Introduction Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is an assisted reproductive technology, first introduced clinically in 1992 [1]. ICSI involves retrieval of sperm from an ejaculated or surgically obtained sample; a single spermatozoon is then injected directly into the cytoplasm of a mature oocyte during an in vitro fertilisation (IVF) cycle [2]. ICSI was developed to overcome male factor infertility, or fertilisation failure during conventional IVF [3].

A comprehensive tRNA pseudouridine map uncovers targets dependent on human stand-alone pseudouridine synthases - Nature Cell Biology

By Haiqi Xu, Giuseppina Pisignano, Parinaz Mehdipour
| Nature Verified
Abstract Pseudouridine (Ψ) is one of the most abundant RNA modifications in human cells, introduced post-transcriptionally by pseudouridine synthases (PUS). Despite its prevalence, the biological functions of Ψ remain poorly understood, largely due to the limited knowledge linking specific PUS enzymes to their targets.
