Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, ADAM23 RNA is linked to patient survival in 26 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated ADAM23 data layer compared with 8 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), where higher ADAM23 RNA is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated ADAM23 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUSC and UCS show a favorable association.
KIRP, BLCA, and UVM are the cancer types where ADAM23 RNA most reproducibly stratifies survival.
RNA survival associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. AUC1 and AUC2 indicate survival in the high- and low-expression groups, respectively; the lower AUC marks the poorer-surviving group. p-values are from the log-rank test.
