Abstract Epigenetic traits impact the antitumor function of CD8 T cells, yet whether and how RNA methylation programs engage in cell immunity is poorly understood.

Abstract RNA methylation, a prevalent post-transcriptional modification, has garnered considerable attention in research circles. It exerts regulatory control over diverse biological functions by modulating splicing, translation, transport, and stability. Notably, studies have illuminated the substantial impact of methylation on tumor immunity. The primary types encompass N6-methyladenosine (m6A), 5-methylcytosine (m5C), N1-methyladenosine (m1A), N7-methylguanosine (m7G), 3-methylcytidine (m3C). Compelling evidence underscores involvement regulating microenvironment (TME). By affecting translation stability through "writers", "erasers" "readers", influence dysregulation immune cells factors. Consequently, plays pivotal role immunity mediating various behaviors, encompassing proliferation, invasion, metastasis, etc. In this review, we discussed mechanisms several methylations, providing comprehensive overview their roles underlying within among immunocytes. exploring how these modifications mediate evasion, also examine potential applications immunotherapy. This review aims to provide novel insights strategies for identifying targets advancing cancer immunotherapy efficacy.

Abstract RNA modifications are emerging as critical cancer regulators that influence tumorigenesis and progression. Key modifications, such N6‐methyladenosine (m 6 A) 5‐methylcytosine 5 C), implicated in various cellular processes. These regulated by proteins write, erase, read modulate stability, splicing, translation, degradation. Recent studies have highlighted their roles metabolic reprogramming, signaling pathways, cell cycle control, which essential for tumor proliferation survival. Despite these scientific advances, the precise mechanisms affect remain inadequately understood. This review comprehensively examines role play proliferation, metastasis, programmed death, including apoptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis. It explores effects on epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) immune microenvironment, particularly metastasis. Furthermore, modifications’ potential therapies, conventional treatments, immunotherapy, targeted is discussed. By addressing aspects, this aims to bridge current research gaps underscore therapeutic of targeting improve treatment strategies patient outcomes.

The use of antitumor drugs represents a reliable strategy for cancer therapy. Unfortunately, drug resistance has become increasingly common and contributes to tumor metastasis local recurrence. immune microenvironment (TME) consists cells, cytokines immunomodulators, collectively they influence the response treatment. Epigenetic changes including DNA methylation histone modification, as well increased exportation have been reported contribute development in cancers. In past few years, majority studies on tumors only focused progression from mechanistic standpoint; examined whether TME can also affect growth resistance. Recently, emerging evidence raised more concerns regarding role present review, it was discussed how suppressive adapts characterized by cooperation cytokines, stromal cells extracellular matrix. Furthermore, reviewed these immunological or metabolic alter immuno‑surveillance thus facilitate addition, potential targets developing novel therapeutic strategies improve individualized therapy treatment were revealed.
