The Role of m[sup.6]A Modifications in B-Cell Development and B-Cell-Related Diseases

B cells are a class of professional antigen-presenting cells that produce antibodies to mediate humoral immune response and participate in immune regulation. m[sup.6]A modification is the most common RNA modification in mRNA; it involves almost all aspects of RNA metabolism and can affect RNA splicing, translation, stability, etc. This review focuses on the B-cell maturation process as well as the role of three m[sup.6]A modification-related regulators-writer, eraser, and reader-in B-cell development and B-cell-related diseases. The identification of genes and modifiers that contribute to immune deficiency may shed light on regulatory requirements for normal B-cell development and the underlying mechanism of some common diseases.
