Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, PLXDC1 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated PLXDC1 data layer compared with 28 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where higher PLXDC1 mass-spec protein is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated PLXDC1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD show a favorable association.
LSCC, UCEC, and LUAD are the cancer types where PLXDC1 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
