m6A modification decreased KLF4 expression via YTHDF2. A ALKBH5 overexpression elevated the expression of KLF4 in Caco-2 cells at both the mRNA and protein levels. B Knockdown of ALKBH5 reduced the expression of KLF4 in Caco-2 cells at both the mRNA and protein levels. C The mRNA stability of KLF4 in Caco-2 cells after transfection with ALKBH5 siRNAs or overexpression plasmids was measured by RT‒qPCR. D The relative mRNA levels of YTHDF1, YTHDF2, YTHDF3 and KLF4 in Caco-2 cells after transfection with YTHDF1, YTHDF2 or YTHDF3 siRNAs. E The protein expression of YTHDF2 and KLF4 in Caco-2 cells after transfection with YTHDF2 siRNAs. F The mRNA stability of KLF4 in Caco-2 cells after transfection with YTHDF2 siRNAs was measured by RT‒qPCR. G RIP-qPCR analysis showed that the YTHDF2 protein bound to KLF4 mRNA. H, I mRNA (H) and protein (I) expression levels of KLF4 in Caco-2 cells after cotransfection with YTHDF2 siRNAs and ALKBH5 overexpression plasmids. The data are expressed as the mean ± SD. ns, not significant, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001
