However, its significance in the head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC) by different human papillomavirus (HPV) statuses remains unclear. We conducted an in-depth analysis of in HNSC using various bioinformatics tools, investigating its expression, alteration, differential levels, prognostic significance, molecular interactions, immune characteristics, and conducting experimental validation through immunohistochemistry (IHC) arrays and Western blot to compare expression levels between tumor and normal tissues, analyze the associations with clinicopathological features, and investigate its responses to chemotherapies.
