INMT

RNA — tumor vs normal
Tumor vs NormalRNABox plot · TCGA cohorts

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, INMT RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 13 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of INMT’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.

The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where INMT RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types INMT is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as LUAD and BLCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.

LUAD, BLCA, and KICH are the cancer types where INMT 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 INMT RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
