Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, AKR1B15 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated AKR1B15 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 2 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in lymphoid neoplasm diffuse large b-cell lymphoma (DLBC), where higher AKR1B15 Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated AKR1B15 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as BLCA and SKCM show a favorable association.
DLBC, LUSC, and UCEC are the cancer types where AKR1B15 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
