The involvement and underlying mechanisms of ferroptosis in adenomyosis have not been fully elucidated. Recently, m\n                    <jats:sup>6<\/jats:sup>\n                    A RNA modification has been found to regulate various biological processes. This study aimed to investigate the status of ferroptosis in adenomyosis and explore how m\n                    <jats:sup>6<\/jats:sup>\n                    A modification regulates key genes associated with ferroptosis. The research revealed ferroptosis present in both eutopic and ectopic endometrial tissues of individuals with adenomyosis. In addition, a decrease in RNA m\n                    <jats:sup>6<\/jats:sup>\n                    A modification levels and a reduction in GPX4 protein expression were observed. GPX4 may serve as a biomarker reflecting the severity of adenomyosis, as it showed a significant negative correlation with CA125 levels, uterine size, and the severity of dysmenorrhea in patients. Mechanistically, the study demonstrated that the downregulation of METTL3 in endometrial stromal cells results in reduced m\n                    <jats:sup>6<\/jats:sup>\n                    A modification on\n                    <jats:italic>GPX4<\/jats:italic>\n                    mRNA. Consequently,\n                    <jats:italic>GPX4<\/jats:italic>\n                    mRNA translation is downregulated by YTHDF1, leading to ferroptosis in eutopic and ectopic endometrial cells. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the mechanisms underlying adenomyosis and provide valuable insights into potential therapeutic strategies targeting ferroptosis in the management of adenomyosis.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1530\/rep-25-0251","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,5]],"date-time":"2025-09-05T17:33:58Z","timestamp":1757093638000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1530\/crossmarkpolicy-11","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["METTL3-mediated m6A modification promotes ferroptosis in adenomyosis through GPX4 in a YTHDF1-dependent manner"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"170","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-7588-8039","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Ying","family":"Tang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zili","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Genetic and Prenatal Diagnosis Center, Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xin","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xiaomin","family":"Niu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shuang","family":"Ning","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Liya","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zheying","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jingru","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qian","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-2728-1619","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Liping","family":"Han","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","reference":[{"key":"bib1","series-title":"Mol Hum Reprod","article-title":"Immune cells and Notch1 signaling appear to drive the epithelial to mesenchymal transition in the development of adenomyosis in mice","volume":"27","author":"Bourdon M","year":"2021","unstructured":"Bourdon M\n, \nSantulli P\n, \nDoridot L\n, et al.\n 2021 Immune cells and Notch1 signaling appear to drive the epithelial to mesenchymal transition in the development of adenomyosis in mice.
