Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, GPM6A RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 16 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of GPM6A’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in thyroid carcinoma (THCA), where GPM6A RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types GPM6A is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA and KICH show the opposite, repressed pattern.
THCA, KICH, and COAD are the cancer types where GPM6A 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 GPM6A RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
