| Description | KIF2C is known as an oncogenic gene to regulate tumor progression and metastasis. However, its pan-cancer analysis has not been reported. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed the characteristics of KIF2C in various cancers. We found that KIF2C was highly expressed and corresponded to a poor prognosis in various cancers. We also found the significant correlation between KIF2C and clinicopathological characteristics particularly in cervical cancer, which is the most common gynecological malignancy and is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide. KIF2C mutation is strongly associated with the survival rate of cervical cancer, and KIF2C expression was significantly up-regulated in cervical cancer tissues and cervical cancer cells. Moreover, KIF2C promoted cervical cancer cells proliferation, invasion and migration in vitro, and as well increased tumor growth in vivo. KIF2C knockdown promotes the activation of p53 signaling pathway by regulating the expression of related proteins. The rescue assay with KIF2C and p53 double knockdown partially reversed the inhibitory influence of KIF2C silencing on cervical cancer processes. In summary, our study provided a relatively comprehensive description of KIF2C as oncogenic gene and suggested KIF2C as a therapeutic target for cervical cancer. |
| Abstract | Kinesin family member 2C (KIF2C) is known as an oncogenic gene to regulate tumor progression and metastasis. However, its pan-cancer analysis has not been reported.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
