Positive regulation of syncytium formation by plasma membrane fusion

Across TCGA cell cohorts, RNA activity of the Positive regulation of syncytium formation by plasma membrane fusion pathway is significantly associated with the RNA expression of multiple genes, with the LIVER cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.

The most reproducible pathway-associated genes across cancer lineages are CAPN2, ADAM9, and MVP, each associated with the pathway in up to 12 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 syncytium formation by plasma membrane fusion activity versus CAPN2 in LIVER (Pearson r = 0.82).

Pathway-associated genes by consensus

Ranked by combined sampling and lineage consensus. X-score (pathway→partner) and Y-score (partner→pathway) are standardized regression coefficients; both directions are reported because the association is undirected. The reported p-values are derived from the association test.
