Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RIPK4 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 10 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of RIPK4’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney chromophobe (KICH), where RIPK4 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types RIPK4 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KICH and THCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.
KICH, COAD, and THCA are the cancer types where RIPK4 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 RIPK4 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
