Across TCGA patient cohorts, HOXB8 protein abundance is significantly associated with the protein abundance of many other proteins, with 18,562 significant associations in total. LSCC shows the largest number of these associations.
The most reproducible HOXB8-associated proteins across cancer lineages are ANK2_S1755, ANK3_S959, and ARHGAP21_S253. Each is linked with HOXB8 in more than 1 cancer types. Because this analysis shows association rather than direction, both HOXB8-to-partner and partner-to-HOXB8 results are reported.
Each partner links to its own Q-omics profile. The scatter plot shows the strongest example, HOXB8 versus ANK2_S1755 in UCEC, with a Pearson correlation of -0.42.
