The post-transcriptional N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification of RNA influences stability, transport, and translation with implications for various physiological and pathological processes. Immune cell development, differentiation, and activation are also thought to be regulated by m6A and affect host defense against pathogens and inflammatory response with impacts on infectious, neoplastic, autoimmune, cardiovascular, hepatic, and osteal diseases. The current review summarizes recent research on m6A in monocyte/macrophages, neutrophils, dendritic cells, natural killer cells, and microglia and gives insights into epigenetic modifications of the immune system and novel therapeutic strategies for immune-related diseases.
