Across TCGA cell cohorts, RNA activity of the Positive regulation of cell-cell adhesion mediated by integrin pathway is significantly associated with the RNA expression of multiple genes, with the LUNG_NSCLC_LUAD cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.
The most reproducible pathway-associated genes across cancer lineages are PODXL, NUDT21, and OTX1, each associated with the pathway in up to 7 cancer types. Since the analysis shows associations rather than directional relationships, both pathway-to-partner and partner-to-pathway views are reported.
Each partner is linked to its corresponding Q-omics profile. The scatter plot shows the strongest association, Positive regulation of cell-cell adhesion mediated by integrin activity versus PODXL in LUNG_NSCLC_LUAD (Pearson r = 0.63).
