Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, LINC01143 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 5 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of LINC01143’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), where LINC01143 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types LINC01143 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KIRC show the opposite, repressed pattern.
UCEC, LUSC, and LIHC are the cancer types where LINC01143 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
