Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CDKN2AIPNL mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated CDKN2AIPNL data layer compared with 22 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), where higher CDKN2AIPNL mass-spec protein is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated CDKN2AIPNL expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as GBM show a favorable association.
PDAC, LSCC, and CCRCC are the cancer types where CDKN2AIPNL mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
