背景情况:
- 青少年异常性关节炎 (JIA) 是一种复杂的自身免疫性疾病,影响儿童.
- 了解JIA中的生化变化对于开发向疗法至关重要.
- 甲基 (MTX) 是一种常见的治疗JIA,但其精确的代谢作用需要进一步阐明.
研究的目的:
- 为了研究来自JIA患者和健康对照的血清中的定量生物化学代谢物差异.
- 为了确定与JIA和MTX治疗相关的代谢途径修改.
- 在JIA中评估MTX对线粒体代谢和肠道吸收功能的影响.
主要方法:
- 横截面研究设计涉及33名JIA患者 (21名没有MTX,12名有MTX) 和28名健康对照.
- 向电喷离子合质谱仪用于血清代谢分析.
- 生物化学代谢物的定量评估,包括自由卡尼丁和卡尼丁.
主要成果:

Drugs for Treatment of Crohn's Disease in IBD Using Immunomodulatory Agents
141
Crohn's disease is an inflammatory bowel disorder marked by chronic inflammation of the GI tract. Various treatment strategies for Crohn's disease are employed, such as immunomodulatory agents, glucocorticoids, and biologics or anti-TNF therapy. Azathioprine (Imuran), a commonly used immunomodulatory drug for Crohn's disease, is converted in the body to mercaptopurine, which inhibits purine biosynthesis and cell proliferation. Both are utilized in severe cases of Inflammatory Bowel...

The JAK-STAT Signaling Pathway
8.6K
Several cytokine receptors have tightly bound Janus kinase or JAK proteins attached at their cytosolic tail. Small signaling molecules such as cytokines, growth hormones, or prolactins bind to the cytokine receptors and initiate their dimerization. The dimerization brings the cytosolic JAKs together that trans-phosphorylate and activates each other. The activated JAKs now phosphorylate cytosolic tails of the cytokine receptors, which serve as binding sites for adaptor proteins such as SH2...
