Positive regulation of brown fat cell differentiation

Across TCGA cell cohorts, RNA activity of the Positive regulation of brown fat cell differentiation pathway is significantly associated with the RNA expression of multiple genes, with the LUNG_NSCLC_LUSC cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.

The most reproducible pathway-associated genes across cancer lineages are IPO13, LYRM2, and GPATCH4, each associated with the pathway in up to 4 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 box plot shows the strongest association, IPO13 grouped by Positive regulation of brown fat cell differentiation-low versus -high activity in LUNG_NSCLC_LUSC.

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.
