KIF15 promotes the development and progression of chordoma via activating PI3K-AKT signalling pathway.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Aims: Despite its implication in various human cancers, the expression and functional significance of Kinesin family member 15 (KIF15) in chordomas remain unexplored. Main methods: The evaluation of KIF15 protein levels was conducted through immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining and Western blot analysis. Cell proliferation was quantified using MTT and CCK8 assays, whereas cell migration was examined using wound healing and Transwell assays. Furthermore, flow cytometric analysis was utilized to assess cell apoptosis and the cell cycle. Additionally, Key findings: Our study revealed significantly higher expression of KIF15 in stage III chordoma tissues compared to stage II tissues. Knockdown of KIF15 led to notable inhibition of cell proliferation and migration, along with enhanced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. Significance: KIF15 promotes chordoma development and progression through the activation of the PI3K-AKT signalling pathway. Thus, targeting KIF15 might be a promising therapeutic strategy for treating chordomas.
