Across TCGA patient cohorts, RNA activity of the Excitatory chemical synaptic transmission pathway is significantly associated with the protein abundance of multiple proteins, with the OV cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.
The most reproducible pathway-associated proteins across cancer lineages are ARID1A_S382, OXR1, and NEXN_S243, 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, Excitatory chemical synaptic transmission activity versus ARID1A_S382 in OV (Pearson r = -0.28).
