Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, SNORD116-9 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 2 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of SNORD116-9’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.

The strongest signal is observed in kidney chromophobe (KICH), where SNORD116-9 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types SNORD116-9 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as STAD show the opposite, repressed pattern.

KICH and STAD are the cancer types where SNORD116-9 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 SNORD116-9 RNA (log₂); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
