Exploration of the relationship between B-cell lymphoma gene 2 and bronchial asthma / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

The B-cell lymphoma gene 2 (Bcl-2) is considered as the most important inhibiting cell apoptosis control gene,and its expression is up-regulated in asthma.Drug intervention against Bcl-2 affects signal pathways,down-regulates the Bcl-2 expression,and induces programmed cell death.It may become the target of asthma treatment.This article reviews the structure characteristics of the Bcl-2,the mechanism of regulating apoptosis,and its role in asthma.
