Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MMP23B mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 2 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated MMP23B data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein.

The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where higher MMP23B mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated MMP23B expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD and LSCC show a favorable association.

LUAD and LSCC are the cancer types where MMP23B mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.

mass-spec protein 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.
