Abstract:
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare immune-mediated disorder characterized by hyperactivation of antigen-presenting cells and T cells, massive secretion of inflammatory cytokines, and impaired function of natural killer cells and CD8 + T cells.Ruxolitinib is a Januse kinase(JAK)inhibitor that reduces cytokine release and retards the inflammatory response by competitive binding to the JAK catalytic site, to achieve the goal of curing HLH.In recent years, ruxolitinib has been gradually applied in the treatment of HLH, and its effectiveness has also been verified.However, studies have also found that there are efficacy differences in the treatment of HLH caused by different etiologies.This article reviews the mechanism of ruxolitinib in the treatment of HLH and the differences in the efficacy of ruxolitinib in the treatment of HLH of different etiologies.
