Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RPL23AP87 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 1 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of RPL23AP87’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), where RPL23AP87 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types RPL23AP87 is over-expressed in tumor.
LIHC are the cancer types where RPL23AP87 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
