Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, EPS8L1 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated EPS8L1 data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 8 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher EPS8L1 mass-spec protein is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated EPS8L1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as HNSC show a favorable association.
HNSC, CCRCC, and PDAC are the cancer types where EPS8L1 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
