Methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) [WRITER]
Representative RIP-seq result supporting the interaction between KRT7 and the regulator
Cell Line MDA-MB-231 Homo sapiens
Regulation logFC: 1.21E+00 GSE60213

Experiment 1 Reporting the m6A Methylation Regulator of This Target Gene [1]
Response Summary Specifically, increased METTL3 methylated KRT7-AS at A877 to increase the stability of a KRT7-AS/Keratin, type II cytoskeletal 7 (KRT7) mRNA duplex via IGF2BP1/HuR complexes. m6A promotes breast cancer lung metastasis by increasing the stability of a KRT7-AS/KRT7 mRNA duplex and translation of KRT7.
Target Regulation Up regulation
Responsed Disease Breast cancer ICD-11: 2C60
Cell Process Lung Metastasis
In-vitro Model MDA-MB-231 Breast adenocarcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0062
BT-549 Invasive breast carcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_1092
In-vivo Model First, subcutaneous transplanted model was used to evaluate the growth of BT-549LMF3 and BT-549 cells. Cells (5 × 106 per mouse, n = 5 for each group) were diluted in 200 ul PBS + 200 ul Matrigel (BD Biosciences) and subcutaneously injected into immunodeficient female mice. Second, subcutaneous transplanted model was used to evaluate the metastasis potential of BT-549LMF3 and BT-549 cells. Cells (5 × 106 per mouse, n = 5 for each group) were diluted in 200 ul PBS + 200 ul Matrigel (BD Biosciences) and subcutaneously injected into immunodeficient female mice. Third, the in vivo lung metastasis model was established by injecting with BT-549, BT-549LMF3, FTO stable BT-549LMF3, sh-METTL3 BT-549LMF3, and sh-KRT7 BT-549LMF3 stable cells (1 × 106 per mouse, n = 5 for each group)
