Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, SLC37A1 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 3 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated SLC37A1 data layer compared with 22 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), where higher SLC37A1 mass-spec protein is associated with worse overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated SLC37A1 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PDAC show a favorable association.
LSCC, LUAD, and PDAC are the cancer types where SLC37A1 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
