Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TMED4 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 14 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of TMED4’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where TMED4 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types TMED4 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.
COAD, HNSC, and BLCA are the cancer types where TMED4 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 TMED4 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
