Pan-Cancer Analysis Reveals FH as a Potential Prognostic and Immunological Biomarker in Lung Adenocarcinoma
Fumarate hydratase (FH) is an important enzymatic component in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Studies have reported that FH plays an important role in hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC). However, the role of FH in human different cancers remains unknown. This study is aimed at an...

Fumarate hydratase (FH) is an important enzymatic component in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Studies have reported that FH plays an important role in hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC). However, the role of FH in human different cancers remains unknown. This study is aimed at analyzing the prognostic value of FH and demonstrating the correlation between FH expression and tumor immunity. Results showed that FH was mutated or copy number varied in 27 types of cancer. FH mRNA was abnormally upregulated across various cancers. Survival analysis suggested high expression of FH was associated with poor prognosis in many cancer types, including lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Additionally, FH expression was associated with immune infiltration, including B cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, neutrophils, macrophages, and dendritic cells, especially in liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), LUAD, and lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC).
