Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RNU7-2P RNA is linked to patient survival in 2 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated RNU7-2P data layer.
The strongest signal is observed in testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT), where higher RNU7-2P RNA is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated RNU7-2P expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as ESCA show a favorable association.
TGCT and ESCA are the cancer types where RNU7-2P RNA most reproducibly stratifies survival.
