N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification restrains antifungal immunity and is a therapeutic target in oral candidiasis

Nicole O. Ponde, Melissa Erin Cook, Isha Mehta, Ipsita Dey, Kenta Yamamoto, Tiffany C. Taylor, Bianca M. Coleman, Shachi Vyas, Rami Bechara, Jishnu Das, Sarah L. Gaffen

This study shows that m6A RNA modification suppresses antifungal immunity in oral epithelial cells and that inhibiting the m6A pathway enhances antimicrobial peptide expression, reducing fungal burden in candidiasis.
