Deciphering the Divergent Gene Expression Landscapes of m6A/m5C/m1A Methylation Regulators in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Through Single-Cell and Bulk RNA Transcriptomic Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

RNA modifications mediated by the m6A, m1A, and m5C regulatory genes are crucial for the progression of malignancy. This study aimed to explore the expression of regulator genes for m6A/m5C/m1A methylation at the single-cell level and to validate their expression in cancerous and adjacent para-cancerous liver tissues of adult patients with HCC who underwent tumor resection.

Methods

The bulk sequencing from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and the single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were used to identify the dysregulated m6A/m5C/m1A genes for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A real-time polymerase chain reaction (real-time PCR) was used to measure the expression of dysregulated m6A/m5C/m1A gen
