Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MIR17HG Mutation is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated MIR17HG data layer compared with 22 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where higher MIR17HG Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated MIR17HG expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC show a favorable association.
HNSC, CESC, and KIRC are the cancer types where MIR17HG Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
