Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, MUC22 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 1 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated MUC22 data layer compared with 16 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in small cell lung cancer (SCLC), where higher MUC22 Mutation is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated MUC22 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker.
SCLC are the cancer types where MUC22 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
