TYK2 in Immune Responses and Treatment of Psoriasis

Abstract: Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2), a key part of the Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway, plays an integral role in the differentiation and immune responses of intrinsic immune cells and regulates the mediation of cytokines. TYK2 leads to inflammatory cascade responses in the pathogenesis of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), especially psoriasis. Small-molecule TYK2 inhibitors are considered to be an effective strategy for modulating psoriasis. Here, we attempt … Show more

“…TYK2 acted as an integral part of the differentiation of innate immune cells and immune response, regulating the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as type I IFN and IL-6. When TYK2 is induced to be expressed, it will further lead to the activation of STAT1 and STAT4 [59]. In TYK2 and STAT1-deficient mouse macrophages, the induction of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IFN-β by LPS was severely reduced [60].…”

“…This can be explained by the implication of Tyk2 in multiple pathways related to psoriasis. The inflammatory environment of active psoriatic skin lesions is characterized by the expression of Th1- and Th17-related cytokines, and type I IFN, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, IL-22, and IL-23 are only a few of the pathogenetically relevant cytokines with signaling pathways affected by Tyk2 loss-of-function mutations ( Figure 3 ) [ 8 , 10 , 22 , 23 ]. Inhibiting Tyk2 activation might be associated with an ideal balance between efficacy and safety because individuals with deactivating genetic variants of Tyk2 are highly protected from some IMIDs but do not exhibit an increased risk of hospitalization for mycobacterial, viral, or fungal infections [ 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 ].…”

“…These Jak dimers phosphorylate the receptor, allowing the attachment, phosphorylation, and eventual dimerization of STAT proteins (STAT1, STAT2, STAT3, STAT4, STAT5a, STAT5b, and STAT6) ( Figure 1 ). Activated STAT proteins combine to form dimers and can translocate to the nucleus where they can act as transcription factors, upregulating the genes responsible for production of proinflammatory cytokines and growth factors, or regulate the behavior of other intracellular proteins [ 1 , 3 , 6 , 7 , 8 ].…”

“…The JAK/STAT signaling pathway comprises an extended protein network that facilitates the secretion of an abundance of pro-inflammatory cytokines as well as growth factors and thus poses an ideal therapeutic target for psoriasis [ 99 ]. Indeed, JAK and TYK2 inhibitors are a class of medications that block Janus kinases and downstream products, showing an efficacious inhibition of pathogenic signaling pathways, including IL-23 ( Figure 1 ).…”
