Prognostic analysis and multiple functional enrichment analysis methods were used to evaluate the prognostic value and potential biological functions of the ACBD4 gene in HBV-related HCC.Results: We found that ACBD4 gene is highly expressed in normal liver tissues and markedly down-regulated in HBV-related HCC tissues. ACBD4 gene was significantly related to overall survival (OS) of HCC in TCGA and GSE14520 cohorts, and patients with low ACBD4 expression were markedly related to poor OS. Rs4986172 was observed as an OS biomarker after hepatectomy in the Guangxi HBV-related HCC cohort. The OS of rs4986172 GG genotype was worse than that of HCC patients with A allele (AA and AG genotypes). Multifunctional enrichment analysis suggested that ACBD4 gene is closely related to the metabolic, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor and cytochrome P450 pathway. Through connectivity map, we also identified eight compounds that may be used as targeted therapeutic agents for ACBD4 gene in HBV-related HCC; these compounds were scopoletin, alfaxalone, bephenium hydroxynaphthoate, apramycin, 4,5-dianilinophthalimide, DL-thiorphan, aminohippuric acid and quinidine. Immune microenvironment analysis revealed that there were significant differences in immune scores of HBV-related HCC tumor tissues with different ACBD4 expression levels.Conclusion: Our study reveals that ACBD4 expression and rs4986172 can be serve as biomarkers of OS in HBV-related HCC patients after hepatectomy.Keywords: rs4986172, ACBD4, HBV-related HCC, overall survival, hepatectomy
