Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MIR5089 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 4 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of MIR5089’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where MIR5089 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types MIR5089 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA and LUAD show the opposite, repressed pattern.
KIRC, BLCA, and THCA are the cancer types where MIR5089 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
