Overview of Gene Research
Socs3, short for suppressor of cytokine signaling 3, is a key negative regulator of cytokine signaling, especially crucial in modulating the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. It plays an essential role in maintaining immune homeostasis, energy metabolism, and cell growth regulation. Genetic models, like KO/CKO mouse models, have been instrumental in understanding its functions [2,4,5].
In KO mouse models, Socs3 deficiency in myeloid cells led to more severe dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis, indicating its role in preventing over-activation of the immune system in inflammatory bowel diseases [3]. Cardiac-specific deletion of Socs3 enhanced cardioprotective signaling pathways, inhibited myocardial apoptosis and fibrosis, and prevented left ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction [4]. Also, loss of Socs3 in the mouse liver increased the rate of liver regeneration and made hepatocytes prone to neoplastic transformation [1].
In conclusion, Socs3 is vital for regulating cytokine signaling, immune responses, and tissue-specific functions. Studies using KO/CKO mouse models have revealed its significance in diseases such as inflammatory bowel diseases, heart diseases, and liver diseases, providing potential therapeutic targets for these conditions.
