Perspective: Targeting the JAK/STAT pathway to fight age-related dysfunction
Open accessAbstract
Senescent cells accumulate in a variety of tissues with aging. They can develop a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) that entails secretion of inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, proteases, and growth factors. These SASP components can alter the microenvironment within tissues and affect the function of neighboring cells, which can eventually lead to local and systemic dysfunction. The JAK pathway is more highly activate in senescent than non-senescent cells. Inhibition of the JAK pathway suppresses the SASP in senescent cells and alleviates age-related tissue dysfunction. Targeting senescent cells could be a promising way to improve healthspan in aged population.

Minimizing the SASP using JAK/STAT inhibition is very similar to eliminating or reducing senescent cell burden genetically or pharmacologically with senolytics.
“In terms of alleviating age-related phenotypes, minimizing the SASP using Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) inhibition is very similar to eliminating or reducing the burden of senescent cells genetically (e.g., using INK-ATTAC mice) or pharmacologically with senolytic agents [4, 11, 13, 60].”

“…defects in DS. 115 Similarly, GADD45 and the JAK-STAT pathway both relate to cellular senescence, which is known to be increased in DS, 113,114,116,117 and JAK-STAT itself has been reported to be disrupted in DS. 118–120 While these connections to RWDD2B are speculative at this point, we believe…”

“…and oxidative stress pathways (Zhang L. et al., 2023). mTOR and JAK inhibitors are particularly relevant for fibroblasts, as they target key signaling nodes that sustain the profibrotic SASP (Xu et al., 2014; Carroll et al., 2017; Xu et al., 2015; Laberge et al., 2015; Xu et al., 2016).”

“Similarly, Tofacitinib, an FDA-approved JAK inhibitor used for autoimmune disorders, has emerged as an additional candidate for targeting cytokine-amplifying senescence networks (Gurău et al. 2018; Xu et al. 2016).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
