JAK3 inhibition may blunt eryptosis in energy-depleted erythrocytes; leaves open therapeutic translation pending human studies.
Does JAK3 deficiency or inhibition prevent eryptosis in energy-depleted erythrocytes?
JAK3 is expressed in erythrocytes and plays a novel role in triggering cell membrane scrambling during energy depletion-induced eryptosis.
Bhavsar et al. (2011) studied this question.
