The characteristics and functional significance of disulfidptosis-related genes in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Disulfidptosis is a newfound programmed cell death (PCD) mode characterized by disulfide stress. Nevertheless, the characteristics and functional significance of disulfidptosis-related genes in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) are still largely unknown. In this study, several computer-aided bioinformatic analyses were performed. The Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) method classified The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) patients into two clusters according to the expression of disulfidptosis-related genes. The relative compositions of cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME), mutant landscape, lasso regression analysis, and predicted clinical outcome were performed by analyzing bulk RNA-sequencing data. Besides, single-cell sequencing data (scRNA) was analyzed by Seurat, CopyK
