Given the expression profile and survival analyses of all KIFs, 11 overexpressed KIFs (KIF10, KIF11, KIF14, KIF15, KIF18A, KIF18B, KIF20A, KIF23, KIF2C, KIF4A, KIFC1) that demonstrated significant prognostic value in breast cancer were enrolled for LASSO regression to construct a KIFs-based risk score for prediction of OS in breast cancer. This evidence concerns the gene KIF23 and breast carcinoma.
