Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MARCOL RNA is linked to patient survival in 14 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated MARCOL data layer.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD), where higher MARCOL RNA is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated MARCOL expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PAAD and UCEC show a favorable association.
PAAD, UCS, and UCEC are the cancer types where MARCOL RNA most reproducibly stratifies survival.
RNA survival associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. AUC1 and AUC2 indicate survival in the high- and low-expression groups, respectively; the lower AUC marks the poorer-surviving group. p-values are from the log-rank test.
