Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, NUP42 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 6 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated NUP42 data layer compared with 25 for mass-spec protein and 2 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where higher NUP42 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated NUP42 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD and OV show a favorable association.
LUAD, PDAC, and HNSC are the cancer types where NUP42 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
mass-spec protein 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.
