Janus Associated Kinase Inhibitors in Pharmacological Therapy

    December 2016

    TLDR JAK inhibitors have therapeutic potential but pose significant risks, requiring careful monitoring.
    The document reviewed studies on Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, highlighting their significant therapeutic effects on conditions like cancer, autoimmune diseases, and inflammatory disorders. Notably, JAK-STAT signaling inhibition was shown to promote hair growth, as demonstrated in a 2015 study by Harel et al. JAK inhibitors such as tofacitinib and ruxolitinib were effective in treating ulcerative colitis, psoriasis, and myelofibrosis, reducing inflammation, improving skin barrier function, and controlling HIV-1 viral replication. Despite their promise in various therapeutic areas, the document did not specify the number of participants in these studies.
