Several oncogenic pathways, such as P53 pathway, DNA repair, KRAS signaling, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), IL6 JAK STAT3 signaling, IL2 STAT5 signaling, PI3K AKT MTOR signaling and angiogenesis, were enriched in pyroptosis-hi subgroups across cancers. This evidence concerns the gene STAT3 and cancer.
