Abstract
Suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) family proteins are a group of negative regulatory factors that plays important roles in the negative regulation of cytokine responses by terminating the activation of the JAK-STAT and other signaling pathways. The family is composed of eight structurally related proteins. mainly through the inhibition of the activation of JAK-STAT signaling pathway and regulates cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. In the process of tumor progression, the promoter CG island hypermethylation, gene mutation, gene deletion and inactivation lead to the abnormal expression of SOCS protein make JAK-STAT continuous activation, resulting in the development and metastasis of tumor. Here, we review the SOCS family members found, composition and molecular structure, the domain of the function, and the latest progress of development in tumor. Based on the important role of SOCS in tumor development, SOCS as a negative regulator factor represent a kind of tumor suppressor genes, has become a new target for tumor therapy.Entities:

1SOCS家族成员的分子结构图。SOCS家族各成员均包含一个SOCS盒和一个中心SH2同源区。而在SOCS1和SOCS3的中心SH2区上游区段还包含一个特有的KIR区。
The structure of the SOCS family members. All the members contain a SOCS box and a central SH2 homology region. Both SOCS1 and SOCS3 contain a unique kinase inhibitory region (KIR) on the upstream of the central SH2 domain, which is proposed to function as a pseudosubstrate.
