Target Gene(s) and Their Upstream m6A Regulator, Together with the Effect of Target Gene(s) in Drug Response
The target genes involved in drug-target interaction (such as drug-metabolizing enzymes, drug transporters and therapeutic targets) and drug-mediated cell death signaling (including modulating DNA damage and repair capacity, escaping from drug-induced apoptosis, autophagy, cellular metabolic reprogramming, oncogenic bypass signaling, cell microenvironment, cell stemness, etc.) could be regulated by m6A regulator(s) and affected their corresponding drug response. You can browse detailed information on drug-related target gene(s) mediated by m6A regulators.
Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (PLAU)
Methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3)
In total 1 mechanisms lead to this potential drug response
Response Summary Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (PLAU) is a therapeutic target for Saruplase. The Methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) has potential in affecting the response of Saruplase through regulating the expression of Urokinase-type plasminogen activator (PLAU). [1], [2]
