Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RHOT1P2 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 5 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of RHOT1P2’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where RHOT1P2 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types RHOT1P2 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as HNSC and KICH show the opposite, repressed pattern.
HNSC, KICH, and READ are the cancer types where RHOT1P2 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
