Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RPL32P15 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 4 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of RPL32P15’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where RPL32P15 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types RPL32P15 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as STAD show the opposite, repressed pattern.
LUAD, STAD, and COAD are the cancer types where RPL32P15 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
