Published: February 2018

Myelofibrosis(MF) is a type of myeloprolifirative neoplasms which is difficult to be treated. With the discovery of V617F mutation site in Janus kinase 2 (JAK2), JAK inhibitor provides a new treatment strategy for patients with myelofibrosis. Since 2011 the FDA in USA approved the first generation of JAK inhibitor Ruxolitinib for marketing, a growing number of JAK inhibitors have been entering into the clinical trials and showed a certain clinical efficacy. On the one hand, some JAK inhibitors for single application can effectively relieve the clinical symptoms of patients with myelofibrosis, slow down disease progression, and prolong the survival; on the other hand, JAK inhibitor can also be applied in combination with traditional or other new targeted drugs for MF patients, even during the allogenetic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, thus providing more choices for targeted therapy on the patients with myelofibrosis. This review focuses mainly on the latest advances of JAK inhibitors for the patients with myelofibrosis.

Background: Aicardi-Goutières Syndrome is a monogenic type 1 interferonopathy with infantile onset, characterized by a variable degree of neurological damage. Approximately 7% of Aicardi-Goutières Syndrome cases are caused by pathogenic variants in the ADAR gene and are classified as Aicardi-Goutières Syndrome type 6. Here, we present a new homozygous pathogenic variant in the ADAR gene.

Differential Efficacy of Advanced Therapies in Inducing Remission in Ulcerative Colitis Based on Prior Exposure to TNF Antagonists.

Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol

December 2024

Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine, University of California San Diego, La Jolla, California, USA; Division of Biomedical Informatics, Department of Medicine, University of California San Diego, La Jolla, California, USA. Electronic address:

Background And Aims: We sought to ascertain how prior exposure to TNF antagonists impacts treatment response with various classes of advanced therapies in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), through a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Methods: Through a systematic review of multiple databases through June 30, 2024, we identified 17 RCTs in 8871 adults with moderate-severe UC who were treated with different advanced therapies vs. placebo, and reported efficacy in induction of clinical remission, stratified by prior exposure to TNF antagonists.

Modulation of IL-6 receptor/STAT3 downstream signaling in rheumatoid arthritis patients.

Exp Mol Pathol

December 2024

Rheumatology Unit, Department of Precision and Regenerative Medicine and Ionian Area (DiMePre-J), University of Bari, Bari, Italy.

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a relevant cytokine in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis, potentially activating Janus kinases (JAK)-1, -2, and tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2), and thus, three signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)-1, -3 or - 5 pathways. This pilot study aims to explore differences in phosphorylated (p)STAT3 levels among patients with RA, those not classified as RA (nRA), and healthy donors (HD), providing some clues on the relative contribution of each JAK protein to the downstream of the IL-6-induced STAT3 pathway. Clinical data and blood samples from 80 subjects (41 RA, 14 nRA, and 25 HD) were collected.

Background: ROS1, a member of the sevenless subfamily of tyrosine kinase insulin receptors, promotes tumor cell survival, proliferation, and metastasis by activating the JAK/STAT, PI3K/AKT, and MAPK/ERK pathways. It only accounts for about 2% of total NSCLC cases. No cases of acquired ROS-1 rearrangement have been reported worldwide.

[VEXAS-like auto inflammatory syndrome: 2 cases].

Rev Med Interne

December 2024

Service de médecine interne, CHI Poissy-St Germain, 10, rue du Champs Gaillard, 78300 Poissy, France.

Introduction: VEXAS syndrome (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic), recently described, due to a somatic mutation of the UBA1 gene and often associated with hemopathy, is characterized by systemic symptoms close to those described in Still's disease or relapsing polychondritis. There are also patients with hemopathy, presenting inflammatory symptoms reminiscent of those of VEXAS syndrome but without mutation of the UBA1 gene.

Case/discussion: Two male patients consulted for general signs, dermatological symptoms, arthralgia, chondritis and venous thrombosis, like patients in the French cohort suffering from VEXAS syndrome.
