Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MRGPRF RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 13 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of MRGPRF’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where MRGPRF RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types MRGPRF is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KIRC and BLCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.
KIRC, BLCA, and KIRP are the cancer types where MRGPRF tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
RNA tumor vs normal associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. Fold-change is the tumor-versus-normal difference in MRGPRF RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
