在环境领域中,砷是一种有毒的重金属,主要通过饮用水途径对人类健康造成各种影响。如今,全球约2亿人正受到含砷的饮用水影响,是一个亟待解决的全球性公共卫生问题。N6-甲基腺苷(m6A)修饰是哺乳动物mRNA中最丰富的化学修饰,在越来越多的研究中发现m6A修饰参与了砷诱导毒效应,因此研究异常RNA修饰在重金属毒性中的作用和机制是一个非常有前景的领域。本研究通过参考国内外文献,综述了m6A修饰在砷诱导毒效应中发挥的作用,并为今后探索其它重金属的毒效应机制提供研究方向。 In the environmental field, arsenic is a toxic heavy metal that causes various effects on human health mainly through the drinking water route. Today, about 200 million people are exposed to arsenic from drinking water, which is a global public health problem that needs to be addressed urgently. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is the most abundant chemical modification in mammalian mRNA. More and more studies have found that m6A modification is involved in arsenic-induced toxicity, so studying the role and mechanism of abnormal RNA modification in heavy metal toxicity is a very promising field. This paper reviews the role of m6A modification in arsenic-induced toxicity by referring to domestic and foreign literature, and provides research directions for exploring the toxic mechanism of other heavy metals in the future.

ABSTRACT
In the environmental field, arsenic is a toxic heavy metal that causes various effects on human health mainly through the drinking water route. Today, about 200 million people are exposed to arsenic from drinking water, which is a global public health problem that needs to be addressed urgently. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is the most abundant chemical modification in mammalian mRNA. More and more studies have found that m6A modification is involved in arsenic-induced toxicity, so studying the role and mechanism of abnormal RNA modification in heavy metal toxicity is a very promising field. This paper reviews the role of m6A modification in arsenic-induced toxicity by referring to domestic and foreign literature, and provides research directions for exploring the toxic mechanism of other heavy metals in the future.
