N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification regulators play an important role in many human diseases, and its abnormal expression can lead to the occurrence and development of diseases. However, their significance in pulpitis remains largely unknown. Here, we sought to identify and validate the m6A RNA regulatory network in pulpitis.Gene expression data for m6A regulators in human pulpitis and normal pulp tissues from public GEO databases were analyzed. Bioinformatics analysis including Gene ontology (GO) functional, and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses were performed by R package, and Cytoscape software was used to study the role of m6A miRNA-mRNA regulatory network in pulpitis. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to validate the expression of key m6A regulators in collected human pulpitis specimens.Differential genes between pulpitis and normal groups were found from the GEO database, and further analysis found that there were significant differences in the m6A modification-related genes ALKBH5, METTL14, METTL3, METTL16, RBM15B and YTHDF1. And their interaction relationships and hub genes were determined. The hub m6A regulator targets were enriched in immune cells differentiation, glutamatergic synapse, ephrin receptor binding and osteoclast differentiation in pulpitis. Validation by qRT-PCR showed that the expression of methylases METTL14 and METTL3 was decreased, thus these two genes may play a key role in pulpitis.Our study identified and validated the m6A RNA regulatory network in pulpitis. These findings will provide valuable resource to guide the mechanistic and therapeutic analysis of the role of key m6A modulators in pulpitis.© 2023. The Author(s).
