JAK-STAT inhibitors in Immune mediated diseases: An Overview.
For any biological response, transmission of extracellular signals to the nucleus is required for DNA transcription and gene expression. In that respect, cytokines/chemokines are well-known inflammatory agents which play a critical role in signalling pathways by activating the Janus kinase-signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK-STAT) signalling proteins (Janus kinase-signal transducers and activators of transcription) which are a group of intracellular kinase molecules. Cytokines are a category of small proteins (∼5-25 kDa) that play a major role in cell signalling and are major drivers of an autoimmune response. Here we will discuss the role of Janus kinase-signal transducers and activators of transcription kinase cascades in the inflammatory-proliferative cascades of autoimmune disease and about the recent progress in the development of oral synthetic Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) and their therapeutic efficacies in dermatologic and systemic autoimmune diseases. Therapeutic efficacy of Janus kinase inhibitors is now well established in the treatment of array of autoimmune and inflammatory disease: spondylarthritis with a special focus on psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and its dermatologic manifestations (psoriasis) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS), atopic dermatitis (AD), alopecia areata (AA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In addition to the first-generation Janus kinase inhibitors several new-generation Janus kinase inhibitors are currently being evaluated. It is expected that these Janus kinase inhibitors likely have higher potency and less adverse effects as compared to their predecessors. Here we have discussed: (1) the functional significance of the Janus kinase-signal transducers and activators of transcription kinase cascades in the inflammatory-proliferative processes of autoimmune diseases and its cellular/molecular mechanisms and (2) progress in the development of oral synthetic Janus kinase inhibitors and their therapeutic efficacies in several systemic and cutaneous autoimmune diseases.
