Journal ArticleDOI

Socs3 deficiency in the brain elevates leptin sensitivity and confers resistance to diet-induced obesity

TL;DR: In this article, the suppressor of cytokine signaling-3 (Socs3) is shown to be a negative feedback regulator of leptin signaling involved in leptin resistance, and the negative regulatory role of Socs3 in leptin signaling in vivo is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Negative regulation of cytokine signaling and immune responses by SOCS proteins.

TL;DR: This review focuses on the molecular mechanism of the action of CIS/SOCS family proteins and their roles in immune regulation and inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Induction of Hyper Th1 Cell-Type Immune Responses by Dendritic Cells Lacking the Suppressor of Cytokine Signaling-1 Gene

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that SOCS1-deficient DCs induce stronger Th1-type responses both in vitro and in vivo, and proposed that reduction of the SOCS 1 gene expression in DCs leads to CD8α+ DC-like phenotype which promotes Th 1-type hyperresponses.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Sprouty-related protein, Spred, inhibits cell motility, metastasis, and Rho-mediated actin reorganization.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Spred1 inhibits the metastasis of LM8 cells in nude mice and suggests that the induction of Spreds could be a novel strategy for preventing cancer cell metastasis.
