GO:0042448Ontology (GO BP)GO biological process · ~16 member genes
Q-omics provides the Progesterone metabolic process (GO:0042448) pathway profile, scoring each patient from the combined activity of its roughly 16 member genes. Pathway activity is associated with patient survival in 23 of 34 cancer types, with the highest sampling consensus in THCA. Among the 18 cancer types available for tumor–normal comparison, the pathway is differentially active in 12, with the highest sampling consensus in KICH. Additionally, pathway RNA activity shows 28,508 significant cross-omics associations, again with the highest sampling consensus in BRCA. Together, these results highlight THCA, KICH, and BRCA as cancer lineages where the pathway shows reproducible signals across outcome, tissue activity, and molecular association analyses.
Every result is evaluated using two consensus scores. Sampling consensus measures how consistently a finding is reproduced within a cancer lineage across different conditions. Lineage consensus measures how broadly the result is shared across cancer types, distinguishing pan-cancer signals from lineage-specific patterns. Pathway-against-pathway and pathway-against-mutation comparisons are not available for ontology entities.
Survival associations
This table summarizes Progesterone metabolic process survival associations by molecular data type. RNA-level pathway activity shows survival associations in the most cancer types (23). The rightmost column indicates the cancer type with the highest sampling consensus for each layer.
This table ranks reproducible pathway activity–survival associations across cancer types. High Progesterone metabolic process activity shows unfavorable associations in THCA, UVM, MESO, LUAD, PAAD and SKCM. In the THCA Kaplan–Meier curve the high-activity group declines faster, consistent with the unfavorable association (log-rank p < 0.001). THCA ranks highest by sampling consensus for Progesterone metabolic process.
This table summarizes Progesterone metabolic process tumor–normal activity differences by data type. RNA-level activity shows significant tumor–normal differences in 12 cancer types, while mass-spec protein activity shows differences in 3. The strongest signals are in THCA for RNA and COAD for protein.
This table ranks reproducible tumor–normal activity differences for the pathway. A positive fold-change indicates higher activity in tumor tissue. The pathway shows higher tumor activity across UCEC and LUSC and lower tumor activity in KICH, THCA, BRCA and READ. In the KICH box plot, normal samples show higher pathway activity than tumor samples (log2 FC = −0.045, t-test p = .001).
This table shows molecular features associated with Progesterone metabolic process pathway activity in patient tissues and cancer cell lines. In patient samples, pathway activity is most strongly linked to RNA and protein features, with the largest associated set in BRCA. In cancer cell lines, RNA-expression features and functional dependencies dominate, with the largest set in BLOOD_Lymphoma.
