Abstract
N1-methyladenosine (m1A) is a prevalent RNA modification widely affecting RNA structural stability, folding, and interactions with proteins. Recently, there have been increasing reports on the roles of m1A regulators in tumors. However, their mechanisms and clinical relevance remain unclear. This study systematically evaluates the epigenetic characteristics and clinical relevance of m1A regulators using bioinformatic methods. Our results show widespread gene expression changes for m1A regulators, which are related to the activation and inhibition of carcinogenic pathways and overall patient survival. Collectively, this investigation provides new insights into assessing tumor prognosis and targeted therapy.
