Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, SMIM15P2 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 9 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of SMIM15P2’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where SMIM15P2 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types SMIM15P2 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA and COAD show the opposite, repressed pattern.
HNSC, LIHC, and THCA are the cancer types where SMIM15P2 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
RNA tumor vs normal associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. Fold-change is the tumor-versus-normal difference in SMIM15P2 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
