Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, RPS11P1 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 4 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of RPS11P1’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where RPS11P1 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types RPS11P1 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as COAD and BRCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.
HNSC, LUSC, and COAD are the cancer types where RPS11P1 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
