Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, PLXNA3 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 18 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of PLXNA3’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where PLXNA3 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types PLXNA3 is over-expressed in tumor.
KIRC, KIRP, and COAD are the cancer types where PLXNA3 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
RNA tumor vs normal associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. Fold-change is the tumor-versus-normal difference in PLXNA3 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
