| Abstract | Background The pathogenesis of acute lung injury (ALI) involves a severe inflammatory response, leading to significant morbidity and mortality. N6-methylation of adenosine (m6A), an abundant mRNA nucleotide modification, plays a crucial role in regulating mRNA metabolism and function. However, the precise impact of m6A modifications on the progression of ALI remains elusive. Methods ALI models were induced by either intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) into C57BL/6 mice or the LPS-treated alveolar type II epithelial cells (AECII) in vitro. The viability and proliferation of AECII were assessed using CCK-8 and EdU assays. The whole-body plethysmography was used to record the general respiratory functions. M6A RNA methylation level of AECII after LPS insults was detected, and then the “writer” of m6A modifications was screened. Afterwards, we successfully identified the targets that underwent m6A methylation mediated by METTL3, a methyltransferase-like enzyme. Last, we evaluated the regulatory role of METTL3-medited m6A methylation at phosphatase and tensin homolog (Pten) in ALI, by assessing the proliferation, viability and inflammation of AECII. Results LPS induced marked damages in respiratory functions and cellular injuries of AECII. The m6A modification level in mRNA and the expression of METTL3, an m6A methyltransferase, exhibited a notable rise in both lung tissues of ALI mice and cultured AECII cells subjected to LPS treatment. METTL3 knockdown or inhibition improved the viability and proliferation of LPS-treated AECII, and also reduced the m6A modification level. In addition, the stability and translation of Pten mRNA were enhanced by METTL3-mediated m6A modification, and over-expression of PTEN reversed the protective effect of METTL3 knockdown in the LPS-treated AECII. Conclusions The progression of ALI can be attributed to the elevated levels of METTL3 in AECII, as it promotes the stability and translation of Pten mRNA through m6A modification. This suggests that targeting METTL3 could offer a novel approach for treating ALI. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
