Abstract excerpt
Suppressor of Cytokine Signaling-2 (SOCS2) is a negative regulator of growth hormone (GH) signaling and bone growth via inhibition of the Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway. This has been classically demonstrated by the overgrowth phenotype of SOCS2(-/-) mice, which has normal systemic insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels. The local effects of GH on bone...
