Additionally, the relative KIF15 mRNA expression levels measured by RT-qPCR with 59 cancerous samples and 49 matched peritumoral samples also indicated that high KIF15 expression was independently connected with poorer OS of HCC patients, and was also significantly associated with undesirable pathological parameters, including larger tumor size and inferior differentiation [123]. Here, KIF15 is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
