Chromatin remodeling and cancer: the critical influence of the SWI/SNF complex.
The SWI/SNF complex was first identified in yeast and named after studies of mutants critical for the mating-type switch (SWI) and sucrose non-fermenting (SNF) pathways.The SWI/SNF complex plays a pivotal role in regulating gene expression by altering chromatin structure to promote or suppress the expression of specific genes, maintain stem cell pluripotency, and participate in various biological processes. Mutations in the SWI/SNF complex are highly prevalent in various human cancers, significantly impacting tumor suppressive or oncogenic functions and influencing tumor initiation and progression. This review focuses on the mechanisms by which ARID1A/ARID1B, PBRM1, SMARCB1, and SMARCA2/SMARCA4 contribute to cancer, the immunoregulatory roles of the SWI/SNF complex, its involvement in DNA repair pathways, synthetic lethality, and applications in precision oncology.
期刊介绍:
Epigenetics & Chromatin is a peer-reviewed, open access, online journal that publishes research, and reviews, providing novel insights into epigenetic inheritance and chromatin-based interactions. The journal aims to understand how gene and chromosomal elements are regulated and their activities maintained during processes such as cell division, differentiation and environmental alteration.
