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.
Janus kinase 3 inhibitors work by inhibiting the action of the enzyme Janus kinase 3, thereby interfering with the JAK-STAT signaling pathway.JAK3 is required for signaling by cytokines through the common γ chain of the interleukin receptors for IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-15, and IL-21. [4]
Janus kinase (JAK) is a family of intracellular, non-receptor tyrosine kinases that transduce cytokine-mediated signals via the JAK-STAT pathway.They were initially named "just another kinase" 1 and 2 (since they were just two of many discoveries in a PCR-based screen of kinases), [1] but were ultimately published as "Janus kinase".
Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with selective activity against RET, VEGFR-2 and EGFR: Medullary thyroid cancer. Diarrhoea, hypertension, QT interval prolongation, depression, electrolyte anomalies, hypothyroidism and GI perforation (uncommon). 2.3 mTOR inhibitors: Everolimus: PO: mTOR inhibitor.

Baricitinib is a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor that reversibly inhibits Janus kinase 1 with a half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC 50) of 5.9 nM and Janus kinase 2 with an IC 50 of 5.7 nM. Tyrosine kinase 2, which belongs to the same enzyme family, is affected less (IC 50 = 53 nM), and Janus kinase 3 far less (IC 50 > 400 nM).
[8] [9] [10] It is a janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, [8] [9] discovered and developed by the National Institutes of Health and Pfizer. Common side effects include diarrhea, headache, and high blood pressure. [10] Serious side effects may include infections, cancer, and pulmonary embolism.
