The m6A–non-coding RNA model in drug-resistant cancer. (A) m6A–miRNA model: m6A modification directly affects the pre-miRNA splicing, resulting in abnormal miRNA level changes in cancer drug resistance. (B) m6A–lncRNA model: ARHGAP5-AS1 recruits METTL3 to promote the stability of ARHGAP5 for inhibiting drug-induced apoptosis. (C) In sorafenib-resistant liver cancer cell, m6A modification promoted circRNA-SORE stabilization. Then, circRNA-SORE could directly bind YBX1 protein or sponge miR-660-3p and miR-103a-2-5p for arresting drug-activated apoptosis.
