Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, GRXCR1 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 3 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of GRXCR1’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), where GRXCR1 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types GRXCR1 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as LUSC and LUAD show the opposite, repressed pattern.
LUSC, LUAD, and PRAD are the cancer types where GRXCR1 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
