Tofacitinib downregulates JAK1 and JAK3 on human intestinal monocytes and macrophages without affecting dendritic cells phenotype or function by Elisa Arribas-Rodríguez, Ángel De Prado, Beatriz de Andrés, Benito Velayos, Jesús Barrio, Alejandro Romero, Francisco Javier García-Alonso, Álvaro Martín-Muñoz, José A. Garrote, Eduardo Arranz, Luis Fernández-Salazar, David Bernardo

“…Although Tofacitinib, which inhibits the JAK1 and JAK3 signalling pathway, is approved to treat patients with UC, its specific mechanism of action remain elusive. Given the central role that conventional dendritic cells (cDC) elicit in gut homeostasis, we hypothesised that Tofacitinib acts modulating cDC function in UC. …”

Hyperhomocysteinemia-induced VCID results in visual deficits, reduced neuroinflammation and vascular alterations in the retina by Erica M. Weekman, Colin B. Rogers, Tiffany L. Sudduth, Donna M. Wilcock

“…However, while OCT-A has been explored as a biomarker of cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD), studies identifying the specific retinal changes and mechanisms associated with cSVD are lacking. Using our model of hyperhomocysteinemia-induced cSVD, we aimed to identify the effects of cSVD on visual sensitivity and cognition, retinal glial and vascular cells, and neuroinflammatory and cardiovascular gene expression changes. …”
