Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, NLGN4X Mutation is linked to patient survival in 11 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated NLGN4X data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (UCEC), where higher NLGN4X Mutation is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated NLGN4X expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as UCEC and SKCM show a favorable association.
UCEC, BLCA, and KICH are the cancer types where NLGN4X Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
Mutation 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.
