Methods: To characterize FAM heterogeneity, we integrated spatial and singlecell transcriptomic approaches . We employed high-dimensional weighted correlation network analysis (hdWGCNA) alongside ﬁve distinct enrichment methods (ssGSEA, AddModuleScore, AUCell, singscore, and UCell) to identify modules with elevated FAM activity. Subsequently, machine learning algorithms were applied to bulk RNA sequencing datasets to pinpoint the key gene with highest predictive value. This candidate underwent validation through functional experiments and analysis of clinical specimens.  \nResults: Malignant epithelial cells displayed the strongest FAM activity. Cross −platform scoring and co−expression analysis produced a reﬁned high−FAM gene set. Integrating this signature with bulk datasets singled out PRDX1 as a key driver. PRDX1 was up−regulated in tumors, predicted poorer prognosis, and was enriched in malignant epithelial cells. Silencing PRDX1 curtailed BLCA cell proliferation, migration, and invasion.  \nConclusions: PRDX1 emerges as a FAM−linked oncogenic biomarker that fosters BLCA progression. These ﬁndings deﬁne the metabolic hierarchy of BLCA and nominate PRDX1 as a candidate target for personalized therapy.  \nKEYWORDS  \nfatty acid metabolism, BLCA, PRDX1, machine learning, urology  \n1 Introduction  \nBladder cancer (BLCA) represents a major urological malignancy, accounting for roughly 573,000 newly diagnosed patients and 212,000 fatalities worldwide during 2020 (1, 2) .
