Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CSTF3-DT RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 10 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of CSTF3-DT’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma (KIRP), where CSTF3-DT RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types CSTF3-DT is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KICH show the opposite, repressed pattern.
KIRP, KICH, and HNSC are the cancer types where CSTF3-DT tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
RNA tumor vs normal associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. Fold-change is the tumor-versus-normal difference in CSTF3-DT RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
