Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TNFSF13B RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 9 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of TNFSF13B’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC), where TNFSF13B RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types TNFSF13B is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as LUSC and THCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.
KIRC, HNSC, and KIRP are the cancer types where TNFSF13B 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 TNFSF13B RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
