| Core Tip |
This mini-review synthesizes evidence that the N6-methyladenosine (m6A) reader YTH structural domain family (YTHDF) 2 exerts context-dependent, often bidirectional effects in neurodegeneration and glioma by directing degradation of m6A-marked transcripts. YTHDF2 is regulated by upstream axes and interacts functionally with m6A writers/erasers. Because its net effect depends on cell type, brain region, disease stage and target dosage, YTHDF2 constitutes both a mechanistic biomarker and a selectively tractable therapeutic target; advancing translation will require cell/region-resolved targetome mapping, longitudinal dynamics, and testing of conditional genetics, small molecules and antisense oligonucleotides. |
