Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, LINC02497 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 1 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of LINC02497’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney chromophobe (KICH), where LINC02497 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types LINC02497 is over-expressed in tumor.
KICH are the cancer types where LINC02497 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
