Across TCGA patient cohorts, RNA activity of the Retrograde neuronal dense core vesicle transport pathway is significantly associated with the protein abundance of multiple proteins, with the GBM cohort showing a particularly strong set of associations.
The most reproducible pathway-associated proteins across cancer lineages are PLEKHF2_S16, AKAP13_S2498, and AKAP8_S328, 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, Retrograde neuronal dense core vesicle transport activity versus PLEKHF2_S16 in GBM (Pearson r = 0.47).
