Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play critical roles in tumor progression regulation, including osteosarcoma. Evidence indicates that N-methyladenosine (mA) modification modulates mRNA stability to regulate osteosarcoma tumorigenesis. Here, present research aims to detect the roles of mA-modified lncRNA FOXD2-AS1 in the osteosarcoma pathophysiological process. Clinical data unveiled that osteosarcoma patients with higher FOXD2-AS1 expression had a poorer overall survival rate compared to those with lower FOXD2-AS1 expression. Functional research illuminated that FOXD2-AS1 accelerated the migration, proliferation and tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, a remarkable mA-modified site was found on the 3'-UTR of FOXD2-AS1, and mA methyltransferase WTAP (Wilms' tumor 1 associated protein) promoted the methylation modification, thus enhancing the stability of FOXD2-AS1 transcripts. Furthermore, FOXD2-AS1 interacted with downstream target FOXM1 mRNA through mA sites, forming a FOXD2-AS1/mA/FOXM1 complex to heighten FOXM1 mRNA stability. In conclusion, these findings propose a novel regulatory mechanism in which mA-modified FOXD2-AS1 accelerates the osteosarcoma progression through mA manner, which may provide new concepts for osteosarcoma tumorigenesis.

Introduction: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is characterized by high recurrence and metastasis rates, leading to poor prognosis. Migrasomes, a class of organelles mediating intercellular communication, and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) both play critical roles in tumor progression; however, the prognostic significance of migrasome-associated lncRNAs in ccRCC remains unclear.
Methods: Migrasome-associated lncRNAs were identified using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset, and a prognostic risk signature was constructed.

Cancer's aggressive nature and delayed diagnoses often result in poor prognoses and limited treatment outcomes. Early detection, personalized treatments, and effective monitoring are essential for improving cancer management. Traditional tumor biomarkers, such as beta-2 microglobulin and Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA), are often yield inaccurate and inconclusive results.

This study aims to investigate the regulatory mechanisms of METTL3, YTHDF1, and the long non-coding RNA FOXD2-AS1 in the proliferation and apoptosis of esophageal cancer, with the goal of providing a basis for molecular diagnosis and targeted therapies. Gene expression was evaluated using qRT-PCR (METTL3/14) and Western blot analysis. The Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, flow cytometry, and Transwell assay were employed to assess cell proliferation and apoptosis.

This study aims to identify and validate a signature of ERLncRNAs for prognostic prediction and characterization of the immune landscape in individuals with ccRCC.
Materials And Methods: Analysis of ccRCC samples was conducted by utilizing clinical and RNA sequencing information obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).
