Abstract
Inbonemetabolism,osteoclastsare the only cellscapableofresorbingbone. Hyperactivity of osteoclasts may lead to osteolytic disease like osteoporosis and arthritis. Although there are several drugs for the treatment of osteolytic diseases, they have limitations and a variety of side effects. An inhibitor of Janus kinase (JAK), XL019, has shown promising results in the treatment of myelofibrosis and other cancers. But whether it can functionally impact osteoclast activity has not been proven. In this study, the effects of XL019 on osteoclastogenesis and the mechanism pathway were investigated in vitro. It was found that XL019 could impair osteoclasts formation, interfere with bone resorption ability and downregulate the osteoclast-specific genes and proteins expression. Furthermore, Western blot and molecular docking studies demonstrated that XL019 inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis by suppressing MAPK signaling. A molecular docking analysis explained how XL019 binds to MAPK pathway factors. In addition, titanium particles induced calvarial osteolysis in mice further confirming its beneficial effect on bone homeostasis in vivo. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that Osteoclastactivity canbeeffectivelyinhibitedby XL019viaMAPK signalingpathway,making it a promising alternative pharmacologicaltreatmentfor bone metabolicdisorders.

Abstract
The present study was designed to identify conditions that could increase the sensitivity of resistant cancer cells to antimitotic drugs. We investigated whether a Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) inhibitor used in clinical trials, XL019, sensitizes antimitotic drug-resistant KBV20C cells. XL019 reduced cellular viability and increased apoptosis in vincristine-treated KBV20C cells, independently of the JAK/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway. Based on the ATP-binding cassette protein B1 [ABCB1, P-glycoprotein (P-gp)] inhibitory assay, we demonstrated that XL019 functions as a P-gp inhibitor in drug-resistant KBV20C cells. Considering that another JAK2 inhibitor, CEP-33779, also inhibited P-gp and sensitized drug-resistant cancer cells in a previous study, we concluded that JAK2 inhibitors can be used as P-gp inhibitors in drug-resistant cancer cells. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting, western blot, and annexin V analyses were used to further investigate the mechanism of action of XL019 in vincristine-treated KBV20C cells. XL019 induced early apoptosis of KBV20C cells in response to vincristine treatment via increased G2 phase arrest. Moreover, G2 phase arrest and apoptosis of cells co-treated with vincristine and XL019 resulted from the up-regulation of phosphorylated retinoblastoma protein (pRb), p21, and the DNA-damage protein, phosphorylated H2A histone family, member X (pH2AX). Additionally, the P-gp-inhibitory effect of XL019 was less than that of CEP-33779, and a more than 2-fold higher dose was required to sensitize vincristine-treated KBV20C cells. Furthermore, lower doses of XL019 were required to sensitize KBV20C cells to a degree similar to that obtained with the established P-gp inhibitor verapamil, suggesting that XL019 has higher specificity than verapamil. Our results showed that JAK2 inhibitors inhibited P-gp action via a direct binding mechanism, which was similar to that of verapamil. These findings indicate that JAK2 inhibitors may be promising therapeutics for the treatment of cancer that is resistant to antimitotic drugs.

Abstract
This phase I study evaluated selective JAK2 inhibitor XL019 in 30 patients with myelofibrosis. The initial dose cohorts were 100, 200, and 300 mg orally on days 1-21 of a 28-day cycle. Central and/or peripheral neurotoxicity developed in all patients. Subsequently, patients were treated on lower doses; neurotoxicity was again observed, leading to study termination. Peripheral neuropathy resolved in 50%, and central neurotoxicity in all patients within months after therapy cessation. Myelosuppression was minimal. The terminal half-life of XL019 was approximately 21 h, with steady state reached by Day 8. International Working Group defined responses were seen in three (10%) patients.
