AbstractARID1A, a component of the SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling complex, is frequently mutated in various cancer types and has emerged as a potential therapeutic target. In this study, we observed that ARID1A-deficient colorectal cancer (CRC) cells showed synthetic lethal effects with a p53 activator, RITA (reactivating p53 and inducing tumor apoptosis). RITA, an inhibitor of the p53-MDM2 interaction, exhibits increased sensitivity in ARID1A-deficient cells compared to ARID1A wild-type cells.

AbstractmiR-17-5p has been found to be involved in the proliferation and metastasis of colorectal cancer (CRC), and N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification is the most common RNA modification in eukaryotes. However, whether miR-17-5p contributes to chemotherapy sensitivity in CRC via m6A modification is unclear.
