In this regard, Zhang and colleagues found that ARID1A expression was decreased in NSCLC tissues and such deregulation correlated with nodal metastasis, tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) stage, as well as, poor differentiation in cancer cell lines, promoting proliferation, colony formation ability, and inhibited paclitaxel-induced apoptosis [32]. Here, ARID1A is linked to non-small cell lung carcinoma.
