Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractJAK Inhibitors for Rheumatoid Arthritis: Assessing Efficacy and Safety in TreatmentAnastasia V. Poznyak, Varvara A Orekhova, Natalia Vladimirovna Elizova et al.Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by synovial inflammation, progressive joint destruction, and systemic complications. Dysregulated cytokine signaling through the Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway plays a central role in RA pathogenesis, making JAK inhibitors an important therapeutic option. Tofacitinib, baricitinib, and upadacitinib are oral targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs that interfere with … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 8 Oct 2026 · 412 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCriniviruses at the Crossroads of Virology and Agroecology: Molecular Dialogues, Vector Synchrony, and Translational Control Strategies in Crop SystemsMd. Abdullah Al Sabbir, Nabela Akter, Ankita Saha, Md. Motaher HossainCriniviruses, members of the Closteroviridae, illustrate how molecular evolution, vector ecology, and climatic variability converge to determine plant virus emergence and persistence. Although individual genomic and transmission traits are well studied, their cross-scale integration has remained limited. Recent advances in comparative genomics and high-throughput sequencing have revealed that bipartite genome reassortment, recombination hotspots, and quasi-species microdiversity provide the genetic flexibility … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 22 Sep 2026 · 469 accessesView PDF Cite
