Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, ZBTB3 mass-spec protein is linked to patient survival in 4 of 34 cancer types, making it a survival-associated ZBTB3 data layer compared with 24 for mass-spec protein and 5 for mutation status.
The strongest signal is observed in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), where higher ZBTB3 mass-spec protein is associated with better disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated ZBTB3 expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as LUAD and GBM show a favorable association.
LUAD, GBM, and HNSC are the cancer types where ZBTB3 mass-spec protein most reproducibly stratifies survival.
