Li et al. [60] found that METTL3, as an oncogene, can extend the half-life of sex determining region Y-box 2 (SOX2) mRNA relied on IGF2BP2 to maintain the expression of SOX2 and SOX2 target genes (CCND1, MYC and so on), which further promotes CRC progression. Here, MYC is linked to colorectal carcinoma.
