Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, ANKRD46 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated ANKRD46 data layer compared with 25 for mass-spec protein and 2 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where higher ANKRD46 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated ANKRD46 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LSCC and LUAD show a favorable association.
LSCC, LUAD, and CCRCC are the cancer types where ANKRD46 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
