Abstract Background Circular RNA (circRNA) and N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) play a critical role in tumour occurrence and development, including colorectal cancer (CRC). However, little is known about the interaction between circRNA and m6A in the radiosensitivity of CRC. Here, we investigated the role of a novel m6A‐regulated circRNA in CRC. Methods Differentially expressed circRNAs from radiosensitive and radioresistant CRC tissues were screened. Modifications of the selected circRNAs were examined by methylated RNA immunoprecipitation assay. Finally, the selected circRNAs were subjected to radiosensitivity assay. Results We identified that circAFF2 is closely related to both radiosensitivity and m6A in CRC. CircAFF2 was highly expressed in patients with radiosensitive rectal cancer, and patients with high expression of circAFF2 had a better prognosis. In addition, circAFF2 can enhance the radiosensitivity of CRC cells both in vitro and in vivo. The regulation of circAFF2 involves ALKBH5‐mediated demethylation, followed by its recognition and degradation via YTHDF2. Rescue experiments revealed that circAFF2 could reverse the radiosensitivity induced by ALKBH5 or YTHDF2. Mechanistically, circAFF2 binds with CAND1, promotes the binding of CAND1 to Cullin1 and inhibits its neddylation, subsequently impacting the radiosensitivity of CRC. Conclusion We identified and characterised circAFF2 as a novel m6A‐modified circRNA and validated the ALKBH5/YTHDF2/circAFF2/Cullin‐NEDD8 axis as a potential radiotherapy target for CRC. |
