Messager RNA (mRNA) can be modified in a variety of ways, among which the modification of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is one of the most common ones. Recent studies have found that the m6A modification in mRNA could functionally regulate the splicing, localization, translation, and stability of mRNA, which might be closely related to multiple diseases. However, the roles of m6A modification in traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) are unknown. Herein, we detected the expression of m6A-related genes  via  quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and performed methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeRIP-seq) as well as RNA-sequencing to analyze the alteration profiles of m6A modification after TON. The results showed that the expression of m6A-related genes (METTL3, WTAP, FTO, and ALKBH5) were all upregulated after TON. In all, 2,810 m6A peaks were differentially upregulated and 689 m6A peaks were downregulated. In addition, the hypermethylated and hypomethylated profiles of mRNA transcripts were also identified. To sum up, our study revealed the differentially expressed m6A modification in the early stage of TON, which may provide novel insights into the mechanism and treatment of TON.
