Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, AGRN mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated AGRN data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where higher AGRN mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated AGRN expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as CCRCC show a favorable association.
LUAD, CCRCC, and LSCC are the cancer types where AGRN mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
