Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, CZIB mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated CZIB data layer compared with 20 for mass-spec protein and 3 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), where higher CZIB mass-spec protein is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated CZIB expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as CCRCC and LUAD show a favorable association.
UCEC, CCRCC, and LUAD are the cancer types where CZIB mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
