Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CYLC2 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 2 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of CYLC2’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), where CYLC2 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types CYLC2 is over-expressed in tumor.
UCEC and KIRP are the cancer types where CYLC2 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
