Clinical signature and associated immune metabolism of NLRP1 in pan-cancer.

ABSTRACT: Inflammations have been linked to tumours, suggesting a potential association between NLRP1 and cancer. Nevertheless, a systematic assessment of NLRP1's role across various cancer types currently absent. A comprehensive bioinformatic analysis was conducted to determine whether NLRP1 exhibits prognostic relevance linked to immune metabolism across various cancers. The study leveraged data from the TCGA and GTEx databases to explore the clinical significance, metabolic features, and immunological characteristics of NLRP1, employing various tools such as R, GEPIA, STRING and TISIDB. NLRP1 exhibited differential expression patterns across various cancers, with elevated expression correlating with a more favourable prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD).
