Asthma, a chronic inflammatory disease in which type 2 T helper cells (Th2) play a causative role in the development of T2 asthma. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification, an mRNA modification, and methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) is involved in the development of T2 asthma by inhibiting Th2 cell differentiation. Sex determining region Y-box protein 5 (SOX5) is involved in regulating T cell differentiation, but its role in T2 asthma was unclear. The objective of this study was to explore the role of METTL3 and SOX5 in T2 asthma and whether there is an interaction between the two.
