KIF18B is a Prognostic Biomarker and Correlates with Immune Infiltrates in Pan-Cancer.

ABSTRACT: Background: Cancer is one of the deadliest diseases at present. Although effective screening and treatment can save lives to a certain extent, our knowledge of the disease is far from sufficient. KIF18B is a member of the kinesin-8 superfamily and plays a conserved regulatory role in the cell cycle. KIF18B reportedly functions as an oncogene in some human cancers, but the correlations between KIF18B and prognosis and immune-infiltrates in different cancers remain unclear. Methods: Data were collected from the TCGA, GTEx, CCLE, TIMER, and GSEA databases. The expression difference, survival, pathological stage, DNA methylation, tumor mutation burden (TMB), microsatellite instability (MSI), mismatch repairs (MMRs), tumor microenvironment (TME), immune cell infiltration, and gene
