Figure 6
Consensus clustering of the 48 distinct PRGs in periodontitis. (a) Consensus matrices of the 48 distinct PRGs for k = 3. (b) CDF for k = 2–9. (c) Relative change in area under CDF curve for k = 2–9. (d) Differential expression levels of the 48 distinct PRGs in three PRG patterns. (e) Expression heat map of the 48 significant PRGs in three PRG patterns. (f) PCA for the expression profiles of the three PRG patterns. , , and . PRG, pyroptosis-related gene; CDF, cumulative distribution function; PCA, principal component analysis.
