Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CELF6 mass-spec protein differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 2 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of CELF6’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where CELF6 mass-spec protein is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types CELF6 is over-expressed in tumor.
LSCC and LUAD are the cancer types where CELF6 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
