Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TMEM131 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 15 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of TMEM131’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in colon adenocarcinoma (COAD), where TMEM131 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types TMEM131 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as COAD and KICH show the opposite, repressed pattern.
COAD, HNSC, and LIHC are the cancer types where TMEM131 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 TMEM131 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
