Overview of Gene Research
ZMYM1, zinc finger MYM-type containing 1, is involved in multiple biological processes. It is regulated by METTL3-mediated N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification, which impacts its mRNA stability. This m6A-related regulation is associated with the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastasis pathways, and thus is of great importance in cancer biology [1,3].
In gastric cancer, METTL3-mediated m6A modification of ZMYM1 mRNA enhances its stability through the HuR-dependent pathway. ZMYM1 then binds to and represses the E-cadherin promoter by recruiting the CtBP/LSD1/CoREST complex, facilitating EMT and metastasis [1]. In liver hepatocellular carcinoma, the METTL3-m6A-ZMYM1 axis may accelerate metastasis by inactivating the RAS/ERK/c-FOS pathway, reducing E-cadherin expression, and increasing N-cadherin and Vimentin expressions [3]. In neuroblastoma, genetic variants may dysregulate ZMYM1 expression, potentially leading to malignant transformation by affecting neuronal differentiation [2].
In summary, ZMYM1, regulated by m6A modification, plays a crucial role in cancer-related biological processes such as EMT, metastasis, and neuronal differentiation in cancer development. Understanding the functions of ZMYM1 through these model-based studies provides insights into potential therapeutic targets for anti-metastatic strategies in gastric and liver cancers, as well as into the pathogenesis of neuroblastoma [1,2,3].
