Objective: To explore the expression of death-associated protein kinase 1(DAPK1) in chronic lymphocytic leukemia(CLL).
Methods: The DAPK1 expression was studied by means of MEC1 cells and B lymphocytes from blood samples of the patients with CLL. The quantitative detection of mRNA and Western blot were used to detecte the expression of DAPK1 and autophagy-related genes at both mRNA and protein levels.
Results: mRNA quantitative detection and Western blot displayed that the DAPK1 expression in the patients with CLL was silenced. So, the expression of DAPK1 and autophagy related genes in MEC1 cells was not significantly different, no matter the cells were treated with or without INF-γ.
Conclusion: Scilencing of DAPK1 expression in CLL results in abnormality of autophagy behavior, thus leading to the occurence of disease.

Lichen planus (LP) is a chronic inflammatory disease (ISD) affecting skin, mucosa, nail, and hair. Previous studies demonstrated a pivotal role of type 1 immunity in LP, as infiltrating T cells trigger apoptosis and necroptosis in the epidermis. In this study, we investigated the role of DAPK1 in LP with special focus on its role in mediating cell death and inflammation.

Background: Autophagy promotes the survival of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells by removing damaged organelles and proteins and protecting them from stress-induced apoptosis. Although many studies have identified candidate autophagy genes associated with AML prognosis, there are still great challenges in predicting the survival prognosis of AML patients. Therefore, it is necessary to identify more novel autophagy gene markers to improve the prognosis of AML by utilizing information at the molecular level.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a general term used to describe high blood pressure in the lungs from any cause. Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive, and fatal disease that causes the walls of the pulmonary arteries to tighten and stiffen. One of the major characteristics of PAH is the hyperproliferation and resistance to apoptosis of vascular cells, which trigger excessive pulmonary vascular remodeling and vasoconstriction.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory rheumatic disease which is characterized by pathological osteogenesis. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification is pivotal in immunity and inflammation. In this study, the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from healthy or AS patients blood samples in Fuyang People's Hospital, which was utilized to clarify the role of m6A modification in AS pathogenesis.

Introduction Oral lichen planus (OLP) comprises a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease observed in the oral cavity. It most commonly manifests as white papules arranged confluently, drawing a picture of white lines in the form of a network (reticular form). It may emerge in other forms as well.
