High TGFB2 mRNA expression emerged as a prognostic biomarker for three potential gene targets (TRPV4, STAU2, and HOXC4) associated with improved OS at low levels of gene target expression, we identified four additional markers (CLIC3, ANPEP/LAP1, RIN2, and EMP1) that exhibited a TGFB2-independent negative correlation between mRNA expression and OS across the full spectrum of gene expression values in the ovarian cancer cohort validated using independent dataset from KMplotter, for Taxol-treated ovarian cancer patients. The gene discussed is TRPV4; the disease is ovarian cancer.
