ZBED4: A Prognostic Biomarker and Therapeutic Target in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Abstract Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a prevalent lethal cancer that remains challenging to treat. Therefore, investigation of novel targets and therapeutic strategies is essential. The role of ZBED4 in cancer remains unclear. Methods: Data were sourced from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC), and Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer (GDSC) databases. Various web platforms and R software, have been utilized. Multiplex immunofluorescence was performed on a human HCC tissue microarray.
