Altered Autophagy-Associated Genes Expression in T Cells of Oral Lichen Planus Correlated with Clinical Features

Figure 2

Expression patterns of autophagy-associated genes in OLP patients and controls based on autophagy array. Expression clusters were indicated by color bars next to the genes and subjects that were included in different clusters. The magnitude of gene expression was present at the bottom of the figure, which represented the gene mRNA relative expression levels by a range of color. Different autophagy-associated genes expression profiles in peripheral blood T cells were shown in two OLP forms and controls (sample 1: nonerosive OLP, NEOLP: sample 2 and sample 3: erosive OLP, EOLP, and control 1, control 2, and control 3: healthy controls).
