Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, LINC01979 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 14 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of LINC01979’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where LINC01979 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types LINC01979 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KICH and LIHC show the opposite, repressed pattern.
COAD, STAD, and KIRC are the cancer types where LINC01979 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 LINC01979 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
