Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a malignant cancer that with high incidence, recurrence, and mortality rates in human beings, posing significant threats to human health. Moreover, effective early diagnosis of NSCLC remains limited primarily by the lack of accurate biomarkers. Therefore, there is an urgent need to understand the mechanisms underlying NSCLC pathogenesis and treatment failure. Methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) is a prototypical member of a family of which its members transfer methyl groups. It has been implicated in modulating the pathogenesis of NSCLC, as well as conferring resistance to NSCLC therapeutics. The targeting of METTL3 for NSCLC treatment has been reported. However, the relationship between METTL3 and NSCLC remains to be demonstrated. In this review, we discuss relevant interrelationships by summarising the studies on METTL3 in NSCLC pathogenesis, therapeutic resistance, and clinical applications. Current research suggests that the upregulation of METTL3 expression propels the tumorigenesis, progression, and treatment resistance of NSCLC. Therefore, we propose that METTL3 is an excellent candidate biomarker for NSCLC diagnosis and prognosis. Therapeutic targeting of METTL3 has significant potential for NSCLC treatment. This review provides a summary of the association between METTL3 and NSCLC, which would be a valuable reference for both basic and clinical research.

Abstract
Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved cellular recycling process that maintains cellular homeostasis. Despite extensive research in endocrine contexts, the role of autophagy in ovarian and testicular steroidogenesis remains elusive. The significant role of autophagy in testosterone production suggests potential treatments for conditions like oligospermia and azoospermia. Further, influence of autophagy in folliculogenesis, ovulation, and luteal development emphasizes its importance for improved fertility and reproductive health. Thus, investigating autophagy in gonadal cells is clinically significant. Understanding these processes could transform treatments for endocrine disorders, enhancing reproductive health and longevity. Herein, we provide the functional role of autophagy in testicular and ovarian steroidogenesis to date, highlighting its modulation in testicular steroidogenesis and its impact on hormone synthesis, follicle development, and fertility therapies.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a primary liver malignancy with high mortality rates and poor prognosis. Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing and bioinformatic technologies have greatly enhanced the understanding of the genetic and epigenetic changes in liver cancer. Among these changes, RNA methylation, the most prevalent internal RNA modification, has emerged as a significant contributor of the development and progression of HCC. Growing evidence has reported significantly abnormal levels of RNA methylation and dysregulation of RNA-methylation-related enzymes in HCC tissues and cell lines. These alterations in RNA methylation play a crucial role in the regulation of various genes and signaling pathways involved in HCC, thereby promoting tumor progression. Understanding the pathogenesis of RNA methylation in HCC would help in developing prognostic biomarkers and targeted therapies for HCC. Targeting RNA-methylation-related molecules has shown promising potential in the management of HCC, in terms of developing novel prognostic biomarkers and therapies for HCC. Exploring the clinical application of targeted RNA methylation may provide new insights and approaches for the management of HCC. Further research in this field is warranted to fully understand the functional roles and underlying mechanisms of RNA methylation in HCC. In this review, we described the multifaceted functional roles and potential mechanisms of RNA methylation in HCC. Moreover, the prospects of clinical application of targeted RNA methylation for HCC management are discussed, which may provide the basis for subsequent in-depth research on RNA methylation in HCC.

METTL3/16-mediated m 6A modification of ZNNT1 promotes hepatocellular carcinoma progression by activating ZNNT1/osteopontin/S100A9 positive feedback loop-mediated crosstalk between macrophages and tumour cells.

Abstract
Macrophages are the major components of tumour microenvironment, which play critical roles in tumour development. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) also contributes to tumour progression. However, the potential roles of m6A in modulating macrophages in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are poorly understood. Here, we identified ZNNT1 as an HCC-related m6A modification target, which was upregulated and associated with poor prognosis of HCC. METTL3 and METTL16-mediated m6A modification contributed to ZNNT1 upregulation through stabilizing ZNNT1 transcript. ZNNT1 exerted oncogenic roles in HCC. Furthermore, ZNNT1 recruited and induced M2 polarization of macrophages via up-regulating osteopontin (OPN) expression and secretion. M2 Macrophages-recruited by ZNNT1-overexpressed HCC cells secreted S100A9, which further upregulated ZNNT1 expression in HCC cells via AGER/NF-κB signaling. Thus, this study demonstrates that m6A modification activated the ZNNT1/OPN/S100A9 positive feedback loop, which promoted macrophages recruitment and M2 polarization, and enhanced malignant features of HCC cells. m6A modification-triggered ZNNT1/OPN/S100A9 feedback loop represents potential therapeutic target for HCC.

Abstract
Pulmonary disease such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, pulmonary fibrosis and pulmonary hypertension are the leading cause of deaths. More importantly, lung diseases are on the rise and environmental factors induced epigenetic modifications are major players on this increased prevalence. It has been reported that dysregulation of genes involved in epigenetic regulation such as the histone deacetylase (HDACs) and histone acetyltransferase (HATs) play important role in lung health and pulmonary disease pathogenesis. Inflammation is an essential component of respiratory diseases. Injury and inflammation trigger release of extracellular vesicles that can act as epigenetic modifiers through transfer of epigenetic regulators such as microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), proteins and lipids, from one cell to another. The immune dysregulations caused by the cargo contents are important contributors of respiratory disease pathogenesis. N6 methylation of RNA is also emerging to be a critical mechanism of epigenetic alteration and upregulation of immune responses to environmental stressors. Epigenetic changes such as DNA methylation are stable and often long term and cause onset of chronic lung conditions. These epigenetic pathways are also being utilized for therapeutic intervention in several lung conditions.

Abstract
While arsenic or BaP alone exposure can cause lung cancer, studies showed that arsenic plus BaP co-exposure displays a significantly stronger lung tumorigenic effect. However, the underlying mechanism has not been well understood. Studies showed that RNA molecules are chemically modified. The most frequently occurring RNA modification in eukaryotic messenger RNAs is the N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation. This study aimed to determine whether arsenic plus BaP exposure alters RNA m6A methylation and its role in lung tumorigenic effect of arsenic plus BaP exposure. Human bronchial epithelial cells transformed by exposure to arsenic or BaP alone, and arsenic plus BaP and mouse xenograft tumorigenesis models were used in this study. It was found that arsenic plus BaP exposure-transformed cells have significantly higher levels of RNA m6A methylation than arsenic or BaP alone exposure-transformed human bronchial epithelial cells. Western blot analysis showed that arsenic plus BaP exposure greatly up-regulates the m6A writer methyltransferase like-3 (METTL3) expression levels in cultured cells and mouse lung tissues. METTL3 knockdown in cells transformed by arsenic plus BaP exposure drastically reduced their RNA m6A methylation levels. Functional studies revealed that METTL3 knockdown in cells transformed by arsenic plus BaP exposure greatly reduces their anchorage-dependent and -independent growth, cancer stem cell characters and tumorigenesis. The findings from this study suggest that arsenic plus BaP co-exposure causes epitranscriptomic dysregulation, which may contribute significantly to arsenic plus BaP co-exposure-caused synergistic lung tumorigenic effect.

Abstract
Lung cancer (LC) is a heterogeneous disease with high malignant degree, rapid growth, and early metastasis. The clinical outcomes of LC patients are generally poor due to the insufficient elucidation of pathological mechanisms, low efficiency of detection and assessment methods, and lack of individualized therapeutic strategies. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including microRNA (miRNA), long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), and circular RNA (circRNA), are endogenous regulators that are widely involved in the modulation of almost all aspects of life activities, from organogenesis and aging to immunity and cancer. They commonly play vital roles in various biological processes by regulating gene expression via their interactions with DNA, RNA, or protein. An increasing amount of studies have demonstrated that ncRNAs are closely correlated with the initiation and development of LC. Their dysregulation promotes the progression of LC via distinct mechanisms, such as influencing protein activity, activating oncogenic signaling pathways, or altering specific gene expression. Furthermore, some ncRNAs present certain clinical values as biomarker candidates and therapeutic targets for LC patients. A complete understanding of their mechanisms in LC progression may be highly beneficial to developing ncRNA-based therapeutics for LC patients. This review mainly focuses on the intricate mechanisms of miRNA, lncRNA, and circRNA involved in LC progression and discuss their underlying applications in LC treatment.

Abstract
Purpose N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification has shown critical roles in regulating mRNA fate. Non-coding RNAs also have important roles in various diseases, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the potential influences of m6A modification on non-coding RNAs are still unclear. In this study, we identified a novel m6A-modified ATP8B1-AS1 and aimed to investigate the effects of m6A on the expression and role of ATP8B1-AS1 in HCC. Methods qPCR was performed to measure the expression of related genes. The correlation between gene expression and prognosis was analyzed using public database. m6A modification level was measured using MeRIP and single-base elongation- and ligation-based qPCR amplification method. The roles of ATP8B1-AS1 in HCC were investigated using in vitro and in vivo functional assays. The mechanisms underlying the roles of ATP8B1-AS1 were investigated by ChIRP and ChIP assays. Results ATP8B1-AS1 is highly expressed in HCC tissues and cell lines. High expression of ATP8B1-AS1 is correlated with poor overall survival of HCC patients. ATP8B1-AS1 is m6A modified and the 792 site of ATP8B1-AS1 is identified as an m6A modification site. m6A modification increases the stability of ATP8B1-AS1 transcript. m6A modification level of ATP8B1-AS1 is increased in HCC tissues and cell lines, and correlated with poor overall survival of HCC patients. ATP8B1-AS1 promotes HCC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, which were abolished by the mutation of m6A-modified 792 site. Mechanistic investigation revealed that m6A-modified ATP8B1-AS1 interacts with and recruits m6A reader YTHDC1 and histone demethylase KDM3B to MYC promoter region, leading to the reduction of H3K9me2 level at MYC promoter region and activation of MYC transcription. Functional rescue assays showed that depletion of MYC largely abolished the oncogenic roles of ATP8B1-AS1. Conclusion m6A modification level of ATP8B1-AS1 is increased and correlated with poor prognosis in HCC. m6A-modified ATP8B1-AS1 exerts oncogenic roles in HCC via epigenetically activating MYC expression.
