Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, LINC02316 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 2 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of LINC02316’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where LINC02316 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types LINC02316 is over-expressed in tumor.
HNSC and STAD are the cancer types where LINC02316 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
