METTL16 and neoplasm: Expression patterns of genes related to m6A regulators among the diseased (PAAD) and controlled samples were analyzed with the help of heatmaps (Figure 1(a)) generated by R. In tumor samples, ALKBH5, YTHDF3, ZC3H13, YTHDF2, RBM15, PCIF1, YTHDF1, IGF2BP1, IGF2BP3, and IGF2BP2 were notably superior in normal control samples, while METTL14, ALKBH3, METTL16, YTHDC2, YTHDC1, HNRNPA2B1, HNRNPC, METTL3, RBMX, WTAP, KIAA1429, and FTO were significantly reduced in the tumor samples.
