MIR210HG promotes breast cancer progression by IGF2BP1 mediated m6A modification

Abstract

In breast cancer, MIR210HG functions as an oncogenic lncRNA, which is also mediated by its encoded miR-210. In addition, both IGF2BP1 and ELAVL1 enhance the stability of MIR210HG, which contributes to the progression of breast cancer. Interestingly, IGF2BP1 is directly activated by MYCN, which explains the oncogenic role of MYCN. These findings clarify the m6A regulation related molecular mechanism of breast cancer progression. The MYCN/IGF2BP1/MIR210HG axis may serve as an alternative molecular mechanism of breast cancer progression.
