Metastasis remains the major cause of treatment failure in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), in which sustained activation of the Notch signaling plays a critical role. N6-Methyladenosine (m6A)-mediated post-transcriptional regulation is involved in fine-tuning the Notch signaling output; however, the post-transcriptional mechanisms underlying NPC metastasis remain poorly understood. In the present study, we report that insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding proteins 3 (IGF2BP3) serves as a key m6A reader in NPC. IGF2BP3 expression was significantly upregulated in metastatic NPC and correlated with poor prognosis in patients with NPC. IGF2BP3 overexpression promoted, while IGF2BP3 downregulation inhibited tumor metastasis and the stemness phenotype of NPC cells in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, IGF2BP3 maintains NOTCH3 mRNA stability via suppression of CCR4-NOT complex-mediated deadenylation in an m6A-dependent manner, which sustains Notch3 signaling activation and increases the transcription of stemness-associated downstream genes, eventually promoting tumor metastasis. Our findings highlight the pro-metastatic function of the IGF2BP3/Notch3 axis and revealed the precise role of IGF2BP3 in post-transcriptional regulation of NOTCH3, suggesting IGF2BP3 as a novel prognostic biomarker and potential therapeutic target in NPC metastasis.
