<description>Background:&#xd;
SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complex is altered in nearly 20% of all human tumor types, which places it as the most broadly&#xd;
mutated molecular system in human cancer, just after TP53 [1, 2]. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms through which these&#xd;
alterations foster cancer development remain to be fully understood. In addition, any potential susceptibility associated with&#xd;
SWI/SNF alterations might be exploited for the treatment of patients affected by different malignancies.&#xd;
Methodology:&#xd;
We have generated stably-transduced cell lines for a doxycycline-inducible vector that directs the expression of different shRNAs&#xd;
targeting ARID1A, ARID1B or ARID2 in different human cancer cell lines. We have studied the transcriptional alterations resulted&#xd;
from the deficiency of these subunits in different cellular contexts by RNA-Seq, as well as the changes in chromatin accessibility&#xd;
by ATAC-Seq. Additionally, we have studied the sensitivity of these cell lines to different antitumoral treatments.&#xd;
Results:&#xd;
We have identified molecular pathways differently expressed in the SWI/SNF-deficient cell lines that might explain some&#xd;
characteristics of the behaviour of these tumor cells. Thus, we have seen an overexpression of genes involved in ROS production,&#xd;
as well as genes encoding metallopeptidases, and a downregulation of genes related to cellular adhesion or tumor suppression.&#xd;
Finally, we have detected different sensitivities in the ARID-deficient cells to some treatments, like cis-platin, and PARP or EGFR&#xd;
inhibitors.</description>
