Role of the JAK/STAT/SOCS signaling pathway in hepatitis B virus-related liver diseases / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

The JAK/STAT/SOCS signaling pathway can mediate a variety of cytokines involved in inflammation, tumor, and autoimmune diseases and it also plays an important role in hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection-related liver diseases. This article briefly reviews the structure and signal pathway regulation of JAK-STAT and SOCS and elaborates on their role in the development and progression of HBV-related chronic hepatitis B, liver cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. The final analysis shows that the JAK/STAT/SOCS signaling pathway is dysregulated in HBV-related liver disease and is involved in the development and progression of the disease, and it may even influence the treatment and prognosis of the disease.
