الملخص
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a progressive debilitating autoimmune disease,
affecting 1% of the world population, leading to cartilage and bone destruction
caused by insufficient apoptosis in the inflamed RA synovium. Survivin is a protooncogene biomarker known for its anti-apoptotic and cell cycle-regulating
properties. Overexpression of survivin in non-cancerous processes has been
linked to inflammation, presumably contributing to the decreased apoptosis in
the T cells of the cerebrospinal fluid in multiple sclerosis, in skin lesions of
patients with psoriasis and in synovial tissue of patients with RA.
