Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, FLRT2 mass-spec protein differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 5 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of FLRT2’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), where FLRT2 mass-spec protein is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types FLRT2 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as PDAC and LSCC show the opposite, repressed pattern.
PDAC, LSCC, and LUAD are the cancer types where FLRT2 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
mass-spec protein tumor vs normal associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. Fold-change is the tumor-versus-normal difference in FLRT2 mass-spec protein (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
