Tofacitinib reduces acute lung injury and improves survival in a rat model of sepsis by inhibiting the JAK-STAT/NF-κB pathway

Abstract Acute lung injury is a major cause of death in sepsis. Tofacitinib (TOFA), a JAK inhibitor, has anti-inflammatory activity in autoimmune diseases, but its role in acute lung injury in sepsis remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to establish a septic rat model by cecal ligation and...
