Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, AHCYL1 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated AHCYL1 data layer compared with 19 for mass-spec protein and 7 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), where higher AHCYL1 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated AHCYL1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PDAC and CCRCC show a favorable association.
PDAC, CCRCC, and LSCC are the cancer types where AHCYL1 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
