Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, APLP2 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated APLP2 data layer compared with 22 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC), where higher APLP2 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated APLP2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as HNSC and GBM show a favorable association.
CCRCC, HNSC, and PDAC are the cancer types where APLP2 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
