Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, NSD1 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated NSD1 data layer compared with 23 for mass-spec protein and 6 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where higher NSD1 mass-spec protein is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated NSD1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD and PDAC show a favorable association.
LUAD, PDAC, and UCEC are the cancer types where NSD1 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
