Abstract
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common type of RNA modification in eukaryotes, which affects intracellular RNA metabolism and controls gene expression of related pathophysiological processes through dynamic reversible regulation of methyltransferases, demethylases and m6A-binding proteins. In recent years, the involvement of m6A methylation in the study of neuropathic pain has become a hot topic, some new understandings have been emerging, and m6A methylation has become a potential biological target for the treatment of neuropathic pain. Therefore, this article reviews the role and regulation of m6A methylation in neuropathic pain, in order to provide new enlightenment for the drug development and treatment of neuropathic pain.
