RPLP2 and rheumatoid arthritis: Notably, XFC treatment remarkably upregulated lncRNA DSCR9 expression and downregulated PI3K and AKT expressions, showing opposite expression trends to the untreated cases.The regulatory effect of XFC on the lncRNA DSCR9/RPLP2/PI3K/AKT axis in RA was investigated using techniques such as RNA pull-down assay, Western blot analysis, RT-PCR, and EdU assay.
