Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CSN1S1 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 4 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of CSN1S1’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), where CSN1S1 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types CSN1S1 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as BRCA and HNSC show the opposite, repressed pattern.
BRCA, HNSC, and ESCA are the cancer types where CSN1S1 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
