Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RNY3P7 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 4 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of RNY3P7’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where RNY3P7 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types RNY3P7 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as HNSC and LUSC show the opposite, repressed pattern.
HNSC, LUSC, and LUAD are the cancer types where RNY3P7 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
