Popis: | JAK inhibitors are approved for myelofibrosis (MF) and polycythemia vera (PV), as they reverse inflammation-associated splenomegaly and symptoms. Notably, JAK inhibitors only marginally affect disease burden. The anti-inflammatory effects of JAK inhibitors affects DC, T and NK cells explaining their therapeutic potential for limitation of cancer-associated inflammation, Graft-versus-Host Disease (GvHD) and autoimmunity. |
