Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, KCNH3 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 13 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of KCNH3’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where KCNH3 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types KCNH3 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KIRC and KICH show the opposite, repressed pattern.
KIRC, KICH, and HNSC are the cancer types where KCNH3 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 KCNH3 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
