Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, LINC00029 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 1 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated LINC00029 data layer compared with 17 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher LINC00029 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated LINC00029 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.
HNSC are the cancer types where LINC00029 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
