A Janus kinase inhibitor, also known as JAK inhibitor or jakinib, [1] is a type of immune modulating medication, which inhibits the activity of one or more of the Janus kinase family of enzymes (JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, TYK2), thereby interfering with the JAK-STAT signaling pathway in lymphocytes.
If JAK inhibitors can show similarly impressive results, gain approval, and make a splash, then these blockbuster biologics could have some real competition. While the future is promising that "if ...

It is a selective inhibitor of the enzyme janus kinase 1 (JAK1). [15] It inhibits JAK1 by 28 fold of selectivity over JAK2 and more than 340 fold of selectivity over JAK3. Two mechanisms are involved in atopic dermatitis, one involves epidermal barrier disruptions, and the other one is cutaneous inflammation due to the immune system over response.
