E2F2 is found to influence multiple biological processes in rheumatoid arthritis, including metabolism, ribosome synthesis, and stress response. Targeting E2F2 may present a unique possibility for the treatment of RA.
The development and progression of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are complex and the pathogenesis of this disease is not fully understood. E2F transcription factor 2 (E2F2) affects the development and progression of many diseases. To identify the mechanisms underlying the role of E2F2 in RA, chromatin immunoprecipitation was performed followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) using the E2F2 antibody. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment of captured downstream target genes and Metascape analysis of 22 protein molecules partly elucidated the mechanism by which E2F2 affects the progression of RA. Results indicated that E2F2 affects the metabolism of RASFs and the development of ribosome synthesis as well as the stress response. Results indicated that E2F2 can affect multiple biological processes involving RASFs and indicate a unique possibility of targeting E2F2 in the treatment of RA.
