Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, FGFBP3 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 13 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of FGFBP3’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in thyroid carcinoma (THCA), where FGFBP3 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types FGFBP3 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA and KIRC show the opposite, repressed pattern.
THCA, KIRC, and KICH are the cancer types where FGFBP3 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 FGFBP3 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
