Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TNFAIP8 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 6 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated TNFAIP8 data layer compared with 25 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), where higher TNFAIP8 mass-spec protein is associated with better overall survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated TNFAIP8 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as PDAC and LSCC show a favorable association.
PDAC, CCRCC, and COAD are the cancer types where TNFAIP8 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
