Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, GLUD1 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 13 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of GLUD1’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in thyroid carcinoma (THCA), where GLUD1 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types GLUD1 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA and KIRC show the opposite, repressed pattern.
THCA, KIRC, and UCEC are the cancer types where GLUD1 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 GLUD1 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
