Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RPL23AP49 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 9 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of RPL23AP49’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney chromophobe (KICH), where RPL23AP49 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types RPL23AP49 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as KICH and HNSC show the opposite, repressed pattern.
KICH, HNSC, and STAD are the cancer types where RPL23AP49 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 RPL23AP49 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
