Abstract
ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers (ACRs) have emerged as central determinants of prostate cancer (PCa) progression and therapy resistance. Organized into four mechanistically distinct families (SWI/SNF, ISWI, CHD, and INO80/SWR), ACRs govern nucleosome positioning genome-wide and thereby occupy a central position in the epigenomic regulatory landscape that dictates where and when transcription factors, including the androgen receptor (AR), can engage chromatin. This review discusses ACR dysregulation in PCa through both mutational and non-mutational mechanisms. These are illustrated by discussing how the functional consequences are highly context-dependent, varying with disease stage, prior treatment exposure, and tumor ancestry. Loss of the tumor suppressors RB1, TP53, and PTEN each generates specific ACR dependencies that are potentially therapeutically exploitable, including synthetic lethal relationships between PTEN deficiency and SWI/SNF ATPase activity. Across the spectrum of AR signaling states, from hormone-sensitive disease through therapy-resistant neuroendocrine and double-negative PCa subtypes, ACR complex composition and genomic targeting are continuously reprogrammed to enable and sustain lineage plasticity and endocrine therapy escape. Therapeutic strategies targeting SWI/SNF, ISWI, and INO80/SWR complexes are at varying stages of preclinical and clinical development and are attractive novel avenues to target therapy resistant PCa.
