This study analyzed the interrelationship between the expression and immune function of ADCY7.Methods: ADCY7 expression in multiple human cancers was analyzed using the databases of Genotype-Tissue Expression Project (GTEx), Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE), and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Correlations among ADCY7 gene expression, mismatch repair (MMR) gene expression, and DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) expression were assessed using Spearman correlation analysis. Univariate survival analysis and Kaplan–Meier (KM) curve were used to examine the effect of ADCY7 expression on prognosis. The Tumor Immune Estimation Resource (TIMER) database was used to evaluate the relationship between ADCY7 gene expression and tumor immune invasion or immune checkpoint gene (ICG) expression.Results: ADCY7 was abnormally expressed in multiple human cancers and was correlated with MMR genes and DNMT expression. Univariate survival analysis and KM curve showed that ADCY7 expression influences the overall survival (OS) of six types of cancer, disease-specific survival (DSS) of eight, and progression-free interval (PFI) of three. The high expression of ADCY7 in OS, DSS, and PFI was strongly associated with poor outcomes in patients with breast cancer and lung squamous cell carcinoma. ADCY7 expression was strongly associated with immune cell infiltration and ICG expression.Conclusion: The results of this study indicated that ADCY7 may be a prognostic biomarker of tumorigenesis. The study may also provide a new perspective on the role of ADCY7 in human cancers.Keywords: adenylate cyclase 7, ADCY7, prognosis, immune infiltration, pan-cancer analysis, biomarker
