e13533 Background: The human alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) gene family is associated with various solid cancers. It seems that the ADH1 gene cluster plays an important role in various solid tumors, so it aroused our interest in studying these genes to find out their functions and biological process within different solid tumors. Methods: Paired tumor and normal tissues gathered from 38 tumor patients, and 5 male BALB/c mice tissues were collected and Immunohistochemistry (IHC) assay was performed. The expression of ADH1A at RNA level in normal tissues and pan-solid tumors and the main functions of ADH1A in different solid tumors were analyzed by Bioinformatics mining. Results: At the RNA level, ADH1A was highly expressed in normal hepatocytes and was expressed lower in the tumor tissues than in the adjacent normal tissues or the corresponding normal tissues, suggesting the At the protein level, ADH1A was expressed to varying degrees in human alveoli, kidney, stomach, colon, and rectum. We predicted three major conserved functions of ADH1A, including angiogenesis, cell adhesion, and leukocyte migration function which might influence the prognosis of the immunotherapy and the immune response, and constructed an upstream regulation network of ADH1A and a downstream protein network. Besides, we also explored the functional differences of ADH1A in lung adenocarcinoma and lung squamous cell carcinoma and its effect on overall survival. And for investigating ADH1A, the BALB/c mice might be an option to consider in constructing an animal model of gastric cancer (GC), esophageal carcinoma (ESCA), liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), and pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD). Conclusions: ADH1A has potential diagnostic and prognostic value in various solid tumors. Our findings highlight new avenues for further investigation of ADH1A biology process and provide a novel potential prognostic biomarker of immunotherapy.
