Pyroptosis is a kind of programmed cell death triggered by the inflammasome. Growing evidence has revealed the crucial utility of pyroptosis in tumors. However, the potential mechanism of pyroptosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is still unclear. In this research, we systematically analyze the genetic and transcriptional alterations of pyroptosis-related genes (PRGs) in ccRCC, identify pyroptosis-related subtypes, analyze the clinical and microenvironmental differences among different subtypes, develop a corresponding prognostic model to predict the prognosis of patients, and interpret the effect of pyroptosis on ccRCC microenvironment. This study provides a new perspective for a comprehensive understanding of the role of pyroptosis in ccRCC and its impact on the immune microenvironment, and a reliable scoring system was established to predict patients' prognosis.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a malignant tumor with poor prognosis. Pyroptosis is a newly discovered type of programmed cell death that is typically accompanied by a strong inflammatory response. Accumulating evidence suggests that pyroptosis-related genes (PRGs) may have important roles in the development of malignant tumors.

Background: Recent research has highlighted pyroptosis as a key factor in cancer progression. This study aims to explore the association between pyroptosis-related signatures and overall survival (OS) in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC) and develop a pyroptosis-related long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) risk model to predict prognosis and response to immunotherapy in HNSC.
Methods: We extracted expression data for 18 pyroptosis-related genes and identified lncRNA probes specific to HNSC by using datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).

Background: Pyroptosis is a form of regulated necrosis that occurs in many cell and tissue types and plays a critical role in tumor progression. The diagnostic value of pyroptosis-related genes (PRGs) in colon cancer has been widely investigated. In the present study, we explored the relationship between PRG expression and colon cancer.

Background: The incidence of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) has been increasing annually; however, early diagnosis can improve patient outcomes. Pyroptosis is a programmed cell death modality that has received considerable attention recently. However, no studies have reported using pyroptosis-related genes in PTC diagnosis.

Background: The present study aimed to construct a novel pyroptosis-related gene signature to predict the prognosis of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC).
Methods: The gene expression level and survival and prognosis information of PTC were obtained from TCGA. The differentially expressed pyroptosis-related genes (DEPs) between cancer and control groups were selected, followed by subtype analysis.
