Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RGS17 Mutation is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated RGS17 data layer compared with 21 for mass-spec protein and 1 for mass-spec protein.
The strongest signal is observed in esophageal carcinoma (ESCA), where higher RGS17 Mutation is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated RGS17 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as BRCA show a favorable association.
ESCA, COAD, and BRCA are the cancer types where RGS17 Mutation most reproducibly stratifies survival.
