The patterns shown in and SOCS3 problems upon the down/upregulation of single reactions/preexisting proteins: (a) upregulation of each reaction rate constant by 1000 times, (b) downregulation of each reaction rate constant by 0.001 times, (c) upregulation of each preexisting molecule by 100 times, and (d) downregulation of each preexisting molecule by 0.01 times. The red curves represent representative abnormal patterns studied in this work, while the green curves are obtained for the normal condition.
