Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, ATXN2-AS RNA is linked to patient survival in 20 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated ATXN2-AS data layer.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where higher ATXN2-AS RNA is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated ATXN2-AS expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCS and HNSC show a favorable association.
KIRC, UCS, and SKCM are the cancer types where ATXN2-AS RNA most reproducibly stratifies survival.
RNA survival associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. AUC1 and AUC2 indicate survival in the high- and low-expression groups, respectively; the lower AUC marks the poorer-surviving group. p-values are from the log-rank test.
