Suppressor of cytokine signalling 1 (SOCS1) was demonstrated to play an important negative role in fulminant hepatitis and might be involved in acute-on-chronic hepatitis B liver failure (ACHBLF). This study was therefore to identify the potential role of SOCS1 and its promoter methylation pattern in ACHBLF patients. Sixty ACHBLF patients, 60 chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients and 30 healthy controls were...
