Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, EIF4EBP3 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 2 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated EIF4EBP3 data layer compared with 22 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where higher EIF4EBP3 mass-spec protein is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated EIF4EBP3 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as CCRCC show a favorable association.
LSCC and CCRCC are the cancer types where EIF4EBP3 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
