YTHDF2 is a key m6A RNA modification"reader"that plays a crucial role in cell biological processes and tumor development.This review deeply explores the biological role of YTHDF2 and the advances in its application in tumors.The YTHDF2 structures are divided into mRNA procsomes and YTH domains,which recognize and bind m6A modified RNA molecules.It plays a biological role by promoting mRNA degradation,regu-lating cell signaling pathways and metabolism,and can regulate macrophage function and maintain an immunosup-pressive state in the tumor microenvironment.YTHDF2 has the potential to serve as diagnostic markers,therapeu-tic targets and prognostic evaluation biomarkers in different tumors,but currently relevant studies are insufficient in sample size,molecular mechanism and clinical application.In the future,research can be conducted on compre-hensive clinical research,in-depth analysis of molecular mechanisms,and research and development of optimized treatment strategies.
