Conclusions
We conclude that OMT regulates IH and influences PPNL resistance via targeting the miR-27a-3p/PPAR-γ signaling pathway through m6A modification.
Objective
The proliferation and migration of hemangioma stem cells (HemSCs) induced apoptosis and adipose differentiation as well as increased the sensitivity of HemSCs to propranolol (PPNL). MiR-27a-3p negatively controlled the peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR-γ) level, counteracting the effect of PPAR-γ on HemSC progression and PPNL resistance. OMT accelerated HemSC progression and adipocyte differentiation via modulating the miR-27a-3p/PPAR-γ axis, inhibiting HemSC resistance to PPNL. In tumor-forming experiments, OMT exhibited a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on the volume of IH PPNL-resistant tumors, which was partially dependent on the regulation of m6A methylation transfer enzyme METTL3 and the miR-27a-3p/PPAR-γ axis, thereby inducing apoptosis. Conclusions: We conclude that OMT regulates IH and influences PPNL resistance via targeting the miR-27a-3p/PPAR-γ signaling pathway through m6A modification.
