General Information of the m6A Target Gene (ID: M6ATAR00468)
Target Name Fibrinogen alpha chain (FGA)
Gene Name FGA
Function
Cleaved by the protease thrombin to yield monomers which, together with fibrinogen beta (FGB) and fibrinogen gamma (FGG), polymerize to form an insoluble fibrin matrix. Fibrin has a major function in hemostasis as one of the primary components of blood clots. In addition, functions during the early stages of wound repair to stabilize the lesion and guide cell migration during re-epithelialization. Was originally thought to be essential for platelet aggregation, based on in vitro studies using anticoagulated blood. However, subsequent studies have shown that it is not absolutely required for thrombus formation in vivo. Enhances expression of SELP in activated platelets via an ITGB3-dependent pathway. Maternal fibrinogen is essential for successful pregnancy. Fibrin deposition is also associated with infection, where it protects against IFNG-mediated hemorrhage. May also facilitate the immune response via both innate and T-cell mediated pathways. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:E9PV24}.

Acute kidney failure [ICD-11: GB60]
In total 2 item(s) under this disease
Experiment 1 Reporting the m6A-centered Disease Response []
Response Summary m6A plays an important role in cisplatin induced acute kidney injury and berberine alleviates this process. Cisplatin induced an increase in Slc12a1 protein levels and a decrease in Fibrinogen alpha chain (FGA) and Havcr1 protein levels. However, berberine pretreatment reversed these effects.
Responsed Disease Acute kidney failure [ICD-11: GB60]
Responsed Drug Cisplatin Approved
Cell Process Metabolic processes
Cell death
Cell apoptosis
In-vivo Model This study investigated the N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylome of kidneys from three mouse groups: C57 mice (controls), those with CI-AKI (injury group, IG), and those pretreated with berberine (treatment group, TG).
Experiment 2 Reporting the m6A-centered Disease Response []
Response Summary m6A plays an important role in cisplatin induced acute kidney injury and berberine alleviates this process. Cisplatin induced an increase in Slc12a1 protein levels and a decrease in Fibrinogen alpha chain (FGA) and Havcr1 protein levels. However, berberine pretreatment reversed these effects.
Responsed Disease Acute kidney failure [ICD-11: GB60]
Responsed Drug Berberine Phase 4
Cell Process Metabolic processes
Cell death
Cell apoptosis
In-vivo Model This study investigated the N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylome of kidneys from three mouse groups: C57 mice (controls), those with CI-AKI (injury group, IG), and those pretreated with berberine (treatment group, TG).
