Tissue engineered skeletal muscle model of rheumatoid arthritis using human primary skeletal muscle cells

Catherine E. Oliver et al.

Summary: The study found that myobundles from RA patients exhibited greater contractile force production in 3D culture compared to aged controls. Additionally, RA muscle fibers showed increased expression of SAA over time, which was positively correlated with tetanus force production in both RA patients and controls.

Involvement of Type I Interferon Signaling in Muscle Stem Cell Proliferation During Dermatomyositis

Laure Gallay et al.

Summary: This study investigated the proliferative properties of muscle stem cells (MuSCs) in patients with dermatomyositis and the role of type I interferon (IFN-I) in this process. Results indicate that autocrine IFN-I signaling inhibits MuSC expansion, leading to muscle repair deficit.

Summary: The two commonly used breast cancer chemotherapies, doxorubicin and docetaxel, have been found to have long-lasting side effects on cardiometabolic and musculoskeletal health. Doxorubicin affects mitochondrial function, while docetaxel remodels the microtubule network, leading to disruptions in glucose transport and respiratory control.

Summary: This study investigated the use of tofacitinib in refractory JDM cases, showing promising results in terms of tolerance and efficacy for the three patients studied. Tofacitinib was well-tolerated and led to significant improvement in disease activity, suggesting it may be a potential treatment option for refractory JDM cases.

Exercise mimetics and JAK inhibition attenuate IFN-gamma-induced wasting in engineered human skeletal muscle

Zhaowei Chen et al.

Summary: In this study, the effects of exercise-mimetic electrical stimulation (E-stim) on interferon-gamma (IFN-γ)-induced muscle weakness were investigated using an in vitro tissue-engineered model of human skeletal muscle (myobundle). The results showed that E-stim attenuated IFN-γ-induced muscle wasting and weakness, in part by down-regulating the JAK/STAT signaling pathway amplified by IFN-γ. These findings reveal a previously unknown mechanism of the cell-autonomous anti-inflammatory effects of muscle exercise.

Loss of sarcomeric proteins via upregulation of JAK/STAT signaling underlies interferon-γ-induced contractile deficit in engineered human myocardium

Ren-Zhi Zhan et al.

Summary: The study revealed that interferon-gamma has adverse effects on human cardiomyocytes, causing reduced contractile force generation, deterioration of sarcomeric organization, and cardiomyocyte disarray, ultimately leading to cardiac dysfunction.

JAK inhibitors: a potential treatment for JDM in the context of the role of interferon-driven pathology

Meredyth G. Ll Wilkinson et al.

Summary: Juvenile Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies (IIM) are rare diseases with diverse pathology, including muscle weakness, skin changes, and systemic involvement. The upregulated type I interferon signature may be a new therapeutic target for IIM. Promising results have been seen with JAK inhibitors in the treatment of refractory Juvenile Dermatomyositis (JDM).

Summary: JAK inhibitors, including ruxolitinib and baricitinib, showed efficacy in achieving CID in a subset of JDM patients, particularly in new-onset or refractory cases. Despite a high rate of herpes zoster infection, the overall tolerance was good.

Updates on interferon in juvenile dermatomyositis: pathogenesis and therapy

Hanna Kim

Summary: Recent studies have highlighted the dysregulated interferon (IFN) pathway in juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) and its correlation with disease activity, potentially predicting disease flares. Muscle studies have connected hypoxia to IFN production, as well as IFN to vascular dysfunction and muscle atrophy in JDM. Case reports and series have shown decreased IFN markers and clinical improvement with Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors in refractory JDM, indicating the promising therapeutic potential of targeting IFN signaling.
