Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, ITGA8 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated ITGA8 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 9 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), where higher ITGA8 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated ITGA8 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as CCRCC and LUAD show a favorable association.
GBM, CCRCC, and PDAC are the cancer types where ITGA8 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
