Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, LGMN RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 11 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of LGMN’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in thyroid carcinoma (THCA), where LGMN RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types LGMN is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA and LUSC show the opposite, repressed pattern.
THCA, HNSC, and STAD are the cancer types where LGMN 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 LGMN RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
