Popis: Abstract Background Despite the rapid advances in modern medical technology, kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) remains a challenging clinical problem in urology. Researchers urgently search for useful markers to break through the therapeutic conundrum due to its high lethality. Therefore, the study explores the value of ADH5 on overall survival (OS) and the immunology of KIRC. Methods The gene expression matrix and clinical information on ADH5 in the TCGA database were validated using external databases and qRT-PCR. To confirm the correlation between ADH5 and KIRC prognosis, univariate/multivariate Cox regression analysis was used. We also explored the signaling pathways associated with ADH5 in KIRC and investigated its association with immunity. Results The mRNA and protein levels showed an apparent downregulation of ADH5 in KIRC. Correlation analysis revealed that ADH5 was directly related to histological grade, clinical stage, and TMN stage (p
