Targeting cytokine storm via the JAK-STAT pathway.
Summary edit
| Description |
English: Targeting cytokine storm via the JAK-STAT pathway. During a cytokine storm, there are increased levels of IL-6 which can form a complex with mIL-6R to act on gp130. Gp130 regulates levels of IL-6, MCP-1, and GM-CSF via the JAK-STAT pathway. This could facilitate the cytokine storm. Inhibition of the JAK-STAT pathway, potentially using IL-6 inhibitors or direct inhibition of signaling, can be a therapeutic strategy (depending on the timing—indicated preferably at later stages of illness, not in early phase, or at clinical signs of cytokine storm). SARS-CoV-2, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2; COVID-19, coronavirus disease 2019; IL, interleukin; mIL-6R, membrane bound interleukin-6 receptor; gp 130, glycoprotein 130; MCP-1, monocytes chemoattractant protein-1; GM-CSF, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor; JAK-STAT, janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription. |
