Kinesin family member 14 in human oral cancer: A potential biomarker for tumoral growth
Kinesin family member 14 (KIF14), a microtubule-based motor protein, plays an important role in chromosomal segregation, congression, and alignment. Considerable evidence indicates that KIF14 is involved in cytokinesis, although little is known about its role in oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCCs). In the current study, we functionally and clinically investigated KIF14 expression in patients ...
متن کاملKar3Vik1, a member of the Kinesin-14 superfamily, shows a novel kinesin microtubule binding pattern
Kinesin-14 motors generate microtubule minus-end-directed force used in mitosis and meiosis. These motors are dimeric and operate with a nonprocessive powerstroke mechanism, but the role of the second head in motility has been unclear. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the Kinesin-14 Kar3 forms a heterodimer with either Vik1 or Cik1. Vik1 contains a motor homology domain that retains microtubule bin...
متن کاملKinesin family member 20A is a novel melanoma-associated antigen.
It has been shown recently that immunotherapy for advanced melanoma is effective. However, in order to improve the efficacy of immunotherapy, the identification of more specific melanoma-associated antigens is urgently needed. Kinesin family member 20A (KIF20A) has been reported to be a promising immunotherapeutic target for pancreatic cancer. To investigate the expression of KIF20A in melanoma...
متن کاملUp-regulation of KIF14 is a predictor of poor survival and a novel prognostic biomarker of chemoresistance to paclitaxel treatment in cervical cancer.
Kinesin family member 14 (KIF14) is a member of kinesin family proteins which have been found to be dysregulated in various cancer types. However, the expression of KIF14 and its potential prognostic significance have not been investigated in cervical cancer. Real-time PCR was performed to assess the expression levels of KIF14 in 47 pairs of cervical cancer tissues and their matched normal tiss...
متن کاملHigh expression of KIF14 is associated with poor prognosis in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer.
OBJECTIVE Kinesin family member 14 (KIF14) is a mitotic kinesin and plays an important role in tumor progression. KIF14 overexpression has been observed in multiple cancers and has been correlated with a poor prognosis. However, its protein expression and prognostic significance in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remain unclear. In this research, we aimed to explore the relationship of KIF14 ex...
