Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, AIPL1 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated AIPL1 data layer compared with 21 for mass-spec protein and 6 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher AIPL1 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated AIPL1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PDAC and CCRCC show a favorable association.
HNSC, PDAC, and CCRCC are the cancer types where AIPL1 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
