METTL3 and m⁶A levels are elevated in mouse and human ADPKD samples. Kidney‑specific overexpression of Mettl3 induces tubular cysts; conditional deletion slows cyst growth in three orthologous ADPKD mouse models. Elevated methionine/SAM drive Mettl3 expression and cystogenesis; dietary methionine restriction attenuates disease. METTL3 increases m⁶A and translation of c‑Myc and Avpr2.
Mettl3 overexpression promotes cystogenesis; KO delays cyst growth; methionine/SAM axis regulates METTL3; dietary restriction modulates disease; c‑Myc and Avpr2 regulated via m⁶A
