Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, LINC01793 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 2 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of LINC01793’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), where LINC01793 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types LINC01793 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.
LIHC and THCA are the cancer types where LINC01793 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
