The study investigated the clinical value of the ARID1A in TCGA colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) tissues and cell lines and discovered that mir-185 downregulates ARID1A in COAD and that lower ARID1A expression was associated with high overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS) (P<.05), and is an independent prognostic factor in colon cancer. This evidence concerns the gene ARID1A and colonic neoplasm.
