Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, SIRT6 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 5 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated SIRT6 data layer compared with 29 for mass-spec protein and 8 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC), where higher SIRT6 mass-spec protein is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated SIRT6 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as CCRCC and GBM show a favorable association.
CCRCC, GBM, and PDAC are the cancer types where SIRT6 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
