The prognostic value and its relationship with immune infiltration of ACLY in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: ATP citrate lyase (ACLY) is activated in various cancers, but its role in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) remains poorly understood. Herein, we investigated the prognostic role and potential mechanism of ACLY in ccRCC. The expression profile of ACLY in ccRCC was explored using Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis 2 (GEPIA2), Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), UALCAN and western blotting assays. The prognosis was investigated using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Kaplan-Meier plotter assays. The relationship with immune infiltration was further evaluated using Tumor Immune Estimation Resource 2 (TIMER2) and Tumor Immune System Interactions and DrugBank (TISIDB) databases, respectively. Further biological function of ACLY in ccRCC pathogenesis was explored using in vitro experim
