Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, KRT17P7 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 1 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of KRT17P7’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD), where KRT17P7 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types KRT17P7 is over-expressed in tumor.
PAAD are the cancer types where KRT17P7 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
