Therapeutic potential for targeting SOCS1 pathway.
Pattern | Approach | Function | Mechanism | Implications | Reference |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Upregulation of SOCS1 | Adenoviral gene transfer | SOCS1 delivery | Upregulating SOCS1 | Bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in SOCS1+/− mice | (99) |
Tyrosine kinase inhibitory peptide | SOCS1 mimetic | Competitive binding to the activation loop of JAK2 | Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis and multiple sclerosis | (100, 101) | |
PS-5 | SOCS1-KIR analog | Competitive binding to the activation loop of JAK2 | Psoriasis | (79) | |
Edratide | SOCS1 inductor: a drug based on the CDR1 sequence of anti-DNA IgG | Systemic lupus erythematosus | (13, 25) |
CDR1, complementarity-determining region 1; JAK2, Janus kinase 2; KIR: kinase inhibitory region; SOCS1, suppressor of cytokine signaling 1.
