Abstract The hostile hypoxic microenvironment takes primary responsibility for the rapid expansion of breast cancer tumors. However, underlying mechanism is not fully understood. Here, using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis, we identified a hypoxia-induced long noncoding (lncRNA) KB-1980E6.3, which aberrantly upregulated in clinical tissues and closely correlated with poor prognosis patients. enhanced lncRNA KB-1980E6.3 facilitates stem cells (BCSCs) self-renewal tumorigenesis under both vitro vivo. Mechanistically, recruited insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 1 (IGF2BP1) to form KB-1980E6.3/IGF2BP1/c-Myc signaling axis that retained stability c-Myc mRNA through increasing binding IGF2BP1 m6A-modified coding region instability determinant (CRD) mRNA. In conclusion, confirm maintains stemness BCSCs suggest disrupting this might provide new therapeutic target refractory
