Abstract: Abstract: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common modification in mRNA, which mainly occurs in 3'-UTR region or near stop codon. As an important epigenetic modification, m6A regulates mRNA stability, splicing and translation to control gene functions. Recently, the regulatory functions of m6A and its machinery proteins in tumorigenesis have become the hot research area. This review summarized the roles of m6A in different clinical cancers according to human system organs.
