Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, NANOGP6 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 4 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of NANOGP6’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where NANOGP6 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types NANOGP6 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.
KIRC, THCA, and STAD are the cancer types where NANOGP6 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
