Several types of modifications have been proven to participate in the metabolism and processing of different RNA types, including non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). N-6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a dynamic and reversible RNA modification that is closely involved in the ncRNA homeostasis, and serves as a crucial regulator for multiple cancer-associated signaling pathways. The ncRNAs usually regulate the epigenetic modification, mRNA transcription and other biological processes, displaying enormous roles in human cancers. In this review, we summarized the significant implications of m6A-ncRNA interaction in various types of cancers. In particular, the interplay between m6A and ncRNAs in cancer pathogenesis and therapeutic resistance are being widely recognized. We also discussed the relevance of m6A-ncRNA interaction in immune regulation, followed by the interference on cancer immunotherapeutic procedures. In addition, we briefly highlighted the computation tools that could identify the accurate features of m6A methylome among ncRNAs. In summary, this review would pave the way for a better understanding of the biological functions of m6A-ncRNA crosstalk in cancer research and treatment.
