Article Abstract
A simple, sensitive and rapid assay method has been developed and validated as per regulatory guideline for the estimation of tofacitinib on mice dried blood spots (DBS) using liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry with electro spray ionization in the positive-ion mode. The method employs liquid extraction of tofacitinib from DBS disk of mice whole blood followed by chromatographic separation using 5 mM ammonium acetate (pH 6.5):acetonitrile (20:80, v/v) at a flow rate of 0.60 mL/min on an X-Terra Phenyl column with a total run time 2.5 min. The MS/MS ion transitions monitored were 313→149 for tofacitinib and 316→149 for the internal standard (C N-tofacitinib). The assay was linear in the range of 0.99-1980 ng/mL. The intra- and inter-day precision was in the range of 1.17-10.3 and 3.37-10.9%, respectively. Stability studies showed that tofacitinib was stable on DBS cards for one month. This novel method has been applied to analyze the DBS samples of tofacitinib obtained from a pharmacokinetic study in mice.

The destructive potential of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) lies in the aggressive behavior of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs), which actively contribute to the erosion of cartilage and bone and may persist even in the face of apparent clinical remission. Therapeutic approaches targeting RA-FLSs have been developed to treat RA; however, there are no clinically approved drugs available at present. Here, single-cell RNA sequencing of RA-FLSs identified a distinct macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) subset with mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum dysfunction.

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder affecting approximately 2% of the global population, characterized by immune-mediated disruption of hair follicle immune privilege and unpredictable hair loss. While CD4 and CD8 T cells are established drivers of pathogenesis, the roles of other immune cell populations remain incompletely defined. Here, we reaffirm the pathogenic role of CD8 T cells and identify a contribution of epidermal γδ T cells and macrophages to alopecia areata.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients often exhibit expansion of the gut pathobiont, adherent-invasive E. coli (AIEC). Loss of activity of the IBD susceptibility gene, protein tyrosine phosphatase type 2 (PTPN2), causes gut microbiota dysbiosis in IBD patients, while Ptpn2 knock-out (Ptpn2-KO) mice display AIEC expansion.

Patients with autoimmune diseases are more susceptible to foodborne infections, which can be exacerbated by immunosuppressive therapy. Tofacitinib, a JAK/STAT pathway inhibitor, was recently approved for the treatment of ulcerative colitis, yet its effects on the pathogenesis of intestinal infections remain unclear. Here, we examined the impact of oral tofacitinib treatment in a mouse model of Campylobacter jejuni (C.
