Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, LIN7B mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated LIN7B data layer compared with 25 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), where higher LIN7B mass-spec protein is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated LIN7B expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PDAC show a favorable association.
PDAC, GBM, and HNSC are the cancer types where LIN7B mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
