Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, DLG5 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 11 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of DLG5’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in thyroid carcinoma (THCA), where DLG5 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types DLG5 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.
THCA, LUAD, and LIHC are the cancer types where DLG5 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 DLG5 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
