Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MIR1288 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 1 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of MIR1288’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), where MIR1288 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types MIR1288 is over-expressed in tumor.
BRCA are the cancer types where MIR1288 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
