Crosstalk Summary Mettl14-mediated m6A modification inhibited Dexamethasone-induced Ras-related protein 1 (RASD1) and induced the apoptosis of spinal cord neurons in SCI by promoting the transformation of pri-miR-375 to mature microRNA 375 (MIR375).

In-vivo Model An incision was made in the skin along the medial dorsal line to the aponeurotic and muscular planes, and the posterior vertebral arches were exposed from T8 to T12. Under the dissection stereomicroscope, 3-mm-long laminectomy was performed on the caudal end of T10 vertebra and the rostral end of T11 vertebra. The Infinite Horizons impactor (Infinite Horizons, L.L.C., Lexington, KY, USA) was adopted to produce the contusion SCI using a force of 60 kdyn/cm2. The SCI model rats were established and randomly assigned to SCI model group, ant-NC (negative control, SCI rats treated with lentiviral (lv)-shRNA NC of Mettl14) group and ant-Mettl14 group (SCI rats treated with lv-shRNA of Mettl14). Rats were subjected to laminectomy and then treated with lv-shRNA Mettl14/lv-shRNA-NC (50 ul/day, 100 nmoL/mL; RiboBio, Guangzhou, China) via an intrathecal injection through lumbar puncture for 3 days (0, 1, and 2 days) after 15 min of SCI modelling. In addition, the unmodeled rats were set as sham group.
