Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, FAM151B RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 11 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of FAM151B’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney chromophobe (KICH), where FAM151B RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types FAM151B is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KICH and THCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.
KICH, COAD, and LIHC are the cancer types where FAM151B 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 FAM151B RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
