Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RNA5SP290 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 3 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of RNA5SP290’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in thyroid carcinoma (THCA), where RNA5SP290 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types RNA5SP290 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as BRCA and KIRP show the opposite, repressed pattern.
THCA, BRCA, and KIRP are the cancer types where RNA5SP290 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
