Abstract

ABSTRACT Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common subtype of liver cancer. Many patients with hepatocellular carcinoma are diagnosed at an advanced stage because the early symptoms are not obvious. For advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, immunotherapy and targeted therapy seem to be a promising direction. Finding a new prognostic marker for hepatocellular carcinoma and exploring its role in the immune microenvironment is of great value. ABCC transporters have previously been associated with drug resistance in hepatocellular tumors, but the exact mechanism remains unclear. Here, we conducted a study on ABCC5 in HCC and found that the expression of ABCC5 was up-regulated in HCC and was associated with poor prognosis. Further exploration revealed that ABCC5 was associated with immune infiltration of hepatocellular carcinoma. Single-cell analysis revealed a potential relationship between ABCC5 and immune cell differentiation. Therefore, it is significant to continue to explore the role of ABCC5 in hepatocellular carcinoma.
