摘要:

文题释义:

N6-甲基腺苷(N6-methyladenosine,m6A)甲基化:是指发生在RNA腺嘌呤N6位点上的甲基化修饰,是一种动态可逆的修饰模式,m6A修饰在转录后水平上调控RNA翻译、可变剪切、转运、定位和降解等,是真核生物mRNA中最丰富的表观遗传修饰,在调控各种细胞的分化、修复、侵袭和凋亡中起重要作用。
甲基转移酶样3(methyltransferase like 3,METTL3):METTL3蛋白共含有580个氨基酸,由一个锌指结构域(Zinc finger domain,ZFD)和一个甲基转移酶结构域组成,这两个结构域都是酶活性所必需的。METTL3作为核心甲基转移酶亚基,可以调节细胞周期、细胞增殖、细胞凋亡、细胞迁移和侵袭、细胞分化和炎症反应等生物学过程。

背景:作为最普遍RNA修饰类型之一,N6-甲基腺苷甲基化已成为通过干扰RNA剪接、翻译、核输出和衰变来调节各种疾病的亮点。然而,甲基转移酶样3介导的 N6-甲基腺苷甲基化表观遗传学修饰对骨代谢的研究尚未得到总结。
目的:总结骨代谢中N6-甲基腺苷核心的甲基转移酶样3的潜在分子机制及其调节成骨分化、破骨分化、软骨凋亡、细胞外基质退变、骨代谢相关疾病等方面的最新进展和未来展望,为骨代谢相关疾病的病理机制研究提供新的见解,并随之对疾病的早期诊断、临床治疗、预后判断等提供理论参考。
方法:以中文关键词“N6-甲基腺嘌呤,甲基转移酶样3,成骨细胞,破骨细胞,软骨细胞,间充质干细胞,骨代谢,骨质疏松症,骨关节炎,骨科疾病,治疗”等检索CNKI数据库,以英文关键词“m6A,METTL3,osteoblast,osteoclasts,chondrocyte,mesenchymal stem cells,bone metabolism,osteoporosis,osteoarthritis,orthopedic disease,therapy”等检索PubMed数据库,全网检索自建库至2022年3月有关甲基转移酶样3/N6-甲基腺苷介导的RNA甲基化在骨科疾病中研究成果的文献,严格按照纳入和排除标准筛选,最后选定35篇文献进行综述。

结果与结论:①甲基转移酶样3在成骨方面的作用存在一定争议,还有待进一步的深入研究;②甲基转移酶样3/N6-甲基腺苷介导的RNA甲基化能够通过多种机制调控骨髓间充质干细胞的成骨及成脂分化,然而其具体机制尚不明确;③甲基转移酶样3调控破骨细胞分化功能对于维持骨稳态以及保持骨骼完整性至关重要;④甲基转移酶样3在骨代谢相关疾病的发生发展中发挥着重要作用,使甲基转移酶样3过表达可能会成为治疗人类骨代谢相关疾病如骨质疏松症的一种新的替代疗法。

Abstract: BACKGROUND: As one of the most prevalent types of RNA modification, N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation has emerged as a bright spot for regulating various diseases by interfering with RNA splicing, translation, nuclear export and decay. However, studies of methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3)-mediated epigenetic modification of m6A methylation on bone metabolism have not been summarized.
OBJECTIVE: To summarize the potential molecular mechanism of m6A core methyltransferase METTL3 in bone metabolism and its latest progress and future prospects in regulating osteogenic differentiation, osteoclastic differentiation, cartilage apoptosis, extracellular matrix degeneration, and bone metabolism-related diseases, thereby offering new insights into the study of the pathological mechanism of bone metabolism-related diseases and then providing a theoretical reference for the early diagnosis, clinical treatment, and prognosis of the diseases.
METHODS: The CNKI database was searched with the Chinese keywords of “N6-methyladenine, methyltransferase-like 3, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, chondrocytes, mesenchymal stem cells, bone metabolism, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, orthopedic diseases, treatment.” The PubMed database was searched with the English keywords of “m6A, METTL3, Osteoblast, osteoclasts, chondrocyte, mesenchymal stem cells, bone metabolism, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, orthopedic disease, therapy.” Literature on METTL3/m6A-mediated RNA methylation in orthopedic diseases was retrieved from database establishment to March 2022. As per the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 35 articles were finally selected for review.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The role of METTL3 in osteogenesis is controversial and remains to be further studied in depth. METTL3/m6A-mediated RNA methylation can regulate osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells through a variety of mechanisms, but the specific mechanism is not clear. METT3 regulation of osteoclast differentiation function is essential for maintaining bone homeostasis as well as maintaining bone integrity. METTL3 plays an important role in the development of bone metabolism-related diseases; therefore, METTL3 overexpression may become a new alternative therapy for the treatment of human bone metabolism-related diseases such as osteoporosis.
