Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MED29 RNA is linked to patient survival in 23 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated MED29 data layer compared with 3 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where higher MED29 RNA is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated MED29 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as KIRC and BRCA show a favorable association.
KIRC, UVM, and BRCA are the cancer types where MED29 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.
