Abstract
Purpose: This study aims to carry out a pan-cancer analysis of kinesin family member 23 (KIF23) and construct a predictive model for the prognosis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) patients.
Methods: We evaluated the differential expression of KIF23 in pan-cancer by The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Oncomine database. Then, the correlation between KIF23 with prognosis, clinical grade, stage, immune subtype, tumor mutation burden (TMB), microsatellite instability (MSI) and immune microenvironment was explored by TCGA, an integrated repository portal for tumor-immune system interactions (TISIDB) and cBioPortal. Subsequently, we screened out ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) related to KIF23 and constructed a risk score model. Univariate Cox analysis was used to determine independent prognostic factors for ccRCC overall survival (OS), and a nomogram was established. Furthermore, gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was applied to study the biological functions and pathways of KIF23. Finally, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was carried out to evaluate the expression of KIF23.
Results: KIF23 was highly expressed in most tumors. Further, KIF23 was strongly correlated with prognosis, clinical grade, stage, immune subtype, TMB, MSI and immune microenvironment in different tumors. We found that KIF23 was significantly associated with all aspects of ccRCC. Then, 8 FRGs were identified to construct a risk score model together with KIF23. And a prognostic nomogram prediction model of OS was established. After GSEA analysis, cell cycle, condensed chromosome and other physiological processes were screened out. Finally, qRT-PCR verified the high expression of KIF23 in ccRCC cell lines than normal kidney cell line.
Conclusion: KIF23 may act as a pivotal part in occurrence and progression of different tumors. In ccRCC, KIF23 can be a great prognostic biomarker, and the nomogram based on KIF23 may contribute to better treatment plans for ccRCC patients.
