BACKGROUND/AIM: Recently, inactivating somatic mutations of SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling genes in cancers have been reported. However, few studies have been performed regarding the immunological analysis of the tumor microenvironment (TME) in chromatin remodeling complex gene-mutated tumors. In the present study, we identified cancer patients harboring various mammalian SWI/SNF complex mutations and investigated the immunological features in those mutated cancers. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Cancer patients harboring any type of chromatin remodeling complex gene mutation were selected and clinicopathological features were compared between chromatin remodeling complex gene expression-low and expression-high groups...
