Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, ZNRD2-AS1 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 14 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of ZNRD2-AS1’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC), where ZNRD2-AS1 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types ZNRD2-AS1 is over-expressed in tumor, although a few such as THCA and KICH show the opposite, repressed pattern.
LIHC, COAD, and BLCA are the cancer types where ZNRD2-AS1 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 ZNRD2-AS1 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
