Delighted that our work on JAK inhibitors acting directly on human sensory neurons with @denklab.bsky.social has made the front cover of @jci-insight.bsky.social
This issue’s cover features work by Leonie S. Taams & team @denklab.bsky.social —JAK inhibitors act directly on human sensory neurons: buff.ly/trWfkCr
The image shows iPSC–derived sensory neurons stained with β III tubulin (green), Brn3a (red), and DAPI (blue).

This was a fantastic collaboration with @denklab.bsky.social leading to intriguing and exciting novel mechanistic insight as to how JAK inhibitors may reduce #pain in #rheumatoid #arthritis by acting directly on #sensory #neurons. Thank you to @wellcometrust.bsky.social for funding this work.
Many congratulations to our joint Denk/@taamslab.bsky.social PhD student Yuening Li for her new paper explaining why JAK inhibitors are better painkillers in rheumatoid arthritis than other biologics: insight.jci.org/articles/vie... 🧪🧠 #PainResearch #painscience #Immunosky
