KIAA1429 promotes infantile hemangioma regression by facilitating the stemness of hemangioma endothelial cells.

ABSTRACT: Infantile hemangiomas are common vascular tumors with a specific natural history. The proliferation and regression mechanism of infantile hemangiomas may be related to the multilineage differentiation ability of hemangioma stem cells, but the specific mechanism is not well elucidated. KIAA1429 is an N⁶ -methyladenosine methylation-related protein that can also exert its role in a methylation-independent manner. This study aims to explore the function of KIAA1429 in infantile hemangiomas. qRT-PCR, western blotting, and immunostaining were performed to verify the expression of KIAA1429. The endothelial and fibroblast-like phenotypes of hemangioma endothelial cells were detected after KIAA1429 knockdown and overexpression. The stemness properties of hemangioma endothelial cells and
