Across TCGA patient cohorts, RNA activity of the Glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor receptor signaling pathway pathway is significantly associated with the RNA expression of multiple genes, with the HNSC cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.
The most reproducible pathway-associated genes across cancer lineages are F2RL3, CCN2, and ISLR, each associated with the pathway in up to 5 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, Glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor receptor signaling pathway activity versus F2RL3 in HNSC (Pearson r = 0.05).
