Abstract
Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is a complex autoimmune disorder characterized by dryness, fatigue, and systemic involvement, with current treatments largely limited to symptom management. This review explores promising new therapeutic strategies targeting specific molecular pathways implicated in SS pathogenesis, including the roles of B cells, T cells, dendritic cells, cytokines, and neuroendocrine factors. We examine recent advances in drug development and clinical trials focusing on novel biological agents that modulate these pathways, potentially offering a more targeted and effective approach to SS treatment. Ultimately, this review aims to provide an overview of these emerging therapies and their potential to improve outcomes for patients with SS.
期刊介绍:
Cellular and Molecular Biology publishes original articles, reviews, short communications, methods, meta-analysis notes, letters to editor and comments in the interdisciplinary science of Cellular and Molecular Biology linking and integrating molecular biology, biophysics, biochemistry, enzymology, physiology and biotechnology in a dynamic cell and tissue biology environment, applied to human, animals, plants tissues as well to microbial and viral cells. The journal Cellular and Molecular Biology is therefore open to intense interdisciplinary exchanges in medical, dental, veterinary, pharmacological, botanical and biological researches for the demonstration of these multiple links.
