NLRP1 and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: Figure 7A demonstrates the relationship between BAK1, NLRP1, CHMP7, and RIPK1 mRNAs and tumor survival. The Kaplan-Meier (K-M) plotter was also used to analyze its relationship with the prognosis of HNSCC patients. As shown in Figures 7B–D, the higher expression of BAK1 worsens the HNSCC prognosis. Unlike BAK1, the higher expression of NLRP1, CHMP7, and RIPK1 improves HNSCC prognosis, as shown in Figures 7E–M.
