Summary (written by the submitters)
Loss-of-function mutations in ARID1A define an aggressive subtype of diffuse gastric cancer (DGC) that is often resistant to standard chemotherapy. Here, we uncover a precise metabolic vulnerability in ARID1A-deficient DGC driven by a specific transporter defect. Through integrated metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses, we demonstrate that ARID1A loss transcriptionally represses the high-affinity nucleoside transporter SLC28A3.

Our profiling revealed a critical lack of redundancy in the concentrative transporter family (CNT) in DGC, establishing a strict reliance on SLC28A3 for maintaining intracellular deoxycytidine (dC) pools. Consequently, ARID1A deficiency creates a severe "low-dCTP" metabolic bottleneck. We show that the dC analog Gemcitabine exploits this state through a distinct functional dichotomy: it enters via intact equilibrative transporters (ENTs) to target cells that have lost their competitive dC barrier. Mechanistically, Gemcitabine exerts a "dual-hit" effect by outcompeting the scarce dC pool for DNA incorporation while simultaneously inhibiting ribonucleotide reductase, thereby blocking de novo nucleotide synthesis. This synergistic collapse of pyrimidine metabolism was validated in patient-derived ex vivo cultures and in vivo peritoneal dissemination models. Our findings provide a robust mechanistic basis for repurposing Gemcitabine as a precision therapy for ARID1A-deficient DGC, offering a potent strategy for this intractable malignancy.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE319750_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1425046 and SRA study SRP677800. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

How we read this: 6 replicated groups read from 14 sample titles; they account for 12 of them. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
