KANTR

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

Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, KANTR RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 9 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of KANTR’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.

The strongest signal is observed in liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), where KANTR RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types KANTR is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA and KICH show the opposite, repressed pattern.

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