    Glossary JAK1/2 inhibitor

    medication that blocks enzymes involved in immune signaling

    A JAK1/2 inhibitor is a type of medication that blocks the activity of Janus kinase 1 and 2 (JAK1 and JAK2), which are enzymes involved in the signaling pathways that regulate immune responses and inflammation. By inhibiting these enzymes, JAK1/2 inhibitors can help treat conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and certain types of alopecia, where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own tissues.
