Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) including circular RNAs (circRNAs) and N6-methyladenosine (m6A) have been shown to play a critical role in the development of various diseases including obesity and metabolic disorder-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). Obesity is a chronic disease considered by excessive fat accumulation in the body, which has been increased lately and is the foremost risk factor for the MAFLD. Causes of obesity may involve the interaction of genetic, behavioral, and social factors. The m6A RNA methylation might add a novel inspiration for understanding the development of obesity and MAFLD with post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. In particular, circRNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs) and m6A might be implicated in the progression of MAFLD. Interestingly, m6A modification could modulate the translation, degradation, and other functions of ncRNAs. miRNAs/circRNAs could also modulate m6A modifications by affecting writers, erasers, and readers. In turn, ncRNAs could modulate the expression of m6A regulators in different ways. However, there is limited evidence on how these ncRNAs and m6A interact to affect the promotion of liver diseases. M6A has been appeared to occur in DNA, RNA and proteins, which may be associated with several biological properties. This study would provide a mechanistic understanding of the m6A modification and ncRNAs in the association on liver diseases, especially for MAFLD. Comprehension of the association between m6A modification and ncRNAs may contribute to the development of treatment tactics for MAFLD.
