The epithelial malignant tumor known as cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is most commonly found in Southeast Asia, particularly in northeastern Thailand. Previous research has indicated that the overexpression of acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4), solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11), and ChaC glutathione-specific γ-glutamylcyclotransferase (CHAC1) as ferroptosis-related proteins is associated with poorer prognosis in several cancers. The role of these three proteins in CCA is still unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the expression levels of ACSL4, SLC7A11, and CHAC1, all potential ferroptosis biomarkers, in CCA.
