In recent decades, several pieces of evidence have drawn greater attention to the topic of innate immunity, in particular, interferon (IFN) and Interleukin 6 in the pathogenesis of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM). Both of these molecules transduce their signal through a receptor coupled with Janus kinases (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription proteins (STAT). In this review, we discuss the role of the JAK/STAT pathway in IIM, evaluate a possible therapeutic role for JAK inhibitors in this group of diseases, focusing on those with the strongest IFN signature (dermatomyositis and antisynthetase syndrome).
近几十年来,多项证据使人们更加关注先天性免疫这一主题,尤其是干扰素(IFN)和白细胞介素6在特发性炎性肌病(IIM)发病机制中的作用。这两种分子都通过与Janus激酶(JAK)/信号转导子和转录激活子(STAT)偶联的受体来转导其信号。在本综述中,我们讨论了JAK/STAT通路在IIM中的作用,评估了JAK抑制剂在这类疾病中的潜在治疗作用,重点关注那些具有最强IFN特征的疾病(皮肌炎和抗合成酶综合征)。
