N6-Methyladenosine Modifications in Pulmonary Hypertension

<b><i>Background:</i></b> The most prevalent kind of RNA methylation modification existing in eukaryotes is N6-methyladenosine (m6A), which is a reversible type of posttranscriptional modification. <b><i>Summary:</i></b> Many studies have reported that m6A participates in cell differentiation, self-renewal, invasion, and apoptosis by modifying protein synthesis. Furthermore, m6A modification is also involved in disease progression and pulmonary vascular remodeling in pulmonary hypertension. However, very few researchers have investigated the effect of m6A modifications on pulmonary hypertension. <b><i>Key Messages:</i></b> Here, we have reviewed the latest research advances in the field of m6A RNA methylation in pulmonary hypertension and explored its regulatory role in pulmonary hypertension development and progression.
