Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, AGL mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated AGL data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 11 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where higher AGL mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated AGL expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LSCC and UCEC show a favorable association.
LSCC, OV, and HNSC are the cancer types where AGL mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
