Article Synopsis
  • PDHA1 is linked to changes in metabolism during tumor growth and shows potential as a predictor for drug sensitivity in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), although this area hasn't been thoroughly explored yet.
  • The study revealed that PDHA1 levels are higher in HCC tissues than in normal tissues and are associated with poorer patient outcomes, as well as with the presence of immune cells.
  • It was found that PDHA1 can serve as an independent prognostic factor for HCC, and higher expression is related to increased sensitivity to certain chemotherapy drugs, supported by strong binding in molecular docking tests.
