FADS2

mass-spec protein & survival
Survivalmass-specKaplan–Meier · TCGA cohorts

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, FADS2 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated FADS2 data layer compared with 27 for mass-spec protein and 2 for mutation status.

The strongest signal is observed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC), where higher FADS2 mass-spec protein is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated FADS2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.

CCRCC, LSCC, and LUAD are the cancer types where FADS2 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.

mass-spec protein survival associations by lineage

Ranked by sampling consensus. AUC1 and AUC2 indicate survival in the high- and low-expression groups, respectively; the lower AUC marks the poorer-surviving group. p-values are from the log-rank test.
