Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MCOLN2 RNA is linked to patient survival in 28 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated MCOLN2 data layer compared with 4 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where higher MCOLN2 RNA is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated MCOLN2 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD and SKCM show a favorable association.
LUAD, SKCM, and CESC are the cancer types where MCOLN2 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.
