Furthermore, m6A regulators play an important role in lung cancer progression, for example FTOH and ALKBH5 have been shown to promote the proliferation of lung cancer cells, and YTHDF2 can regulate tumor metabolism (Khan and Malla, 2021; Xu F. et al., 2021; Xu R. et al., 2021). Here, YTHDF2 is linked to lung carcinoma.
