Comprehensive analyses of PDHA1 that serves as a predictive biomarker for immunotherapy response in cancer.

ABSTRACT: Recent studies have proposed that pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 component subunit alpha (PDHA1), a cuproptosis-key gene, is crucial to the glucose metabolism reprogram of tumor cells. However, the functional roles and regulated mechanisms of PDHA1 in multiple cancers are largely unknown. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), GEPIA2, and cBioPortal databases were utilized to elucidate the function of PDHA1 in 33 tumor types. We found that PDHA1 was aberrantly expressed in most cancer types. Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients with high PDHA1 levels were significantly correlated with poor prognosis of overall survival (OS) and first progression (FP). Kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) patients with low PDHA1 levels displayed poor OS and disease-free survival (DFS). However, for stomach adenocarc
