Aberrant expression of KIN17 in pan-cancer. (AKin17 gene expression examined through the TIMER2 database. (B) KIN17 protein expression in normal tissue and LUAD performed by CPTAC. (C) KIN17 protein expression in normal tissue and LUSC performed by CPTAC. (D) Survival analysis of KIN17 expression in LUAD and LUSC patients performed in GEPIA2. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 and ***P < 0.001 as tumor samples compared to adjacent nontumor samples.
