Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, YWHAQP8 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 4 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of YWHAQP8’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in breast invasive carcinoma (BRCA), where YWHAQP8 RNA is repressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types YWHAQP8 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as BRCA and THCA show the opposite, repressed pattern.
BRCA, LUAD, and THCA are the cancer types where YWHAQP8 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
