Cell, 2016 The hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway is aberrantly activated in a majority of basal cell carcinomas (BCC). Vismodegib and sonidegib are targeted inhibitors of Smoothened (SMO). Both drugs are approved for use in locally advanced BCC (laBCC), with vismodegib also approved for metastatic BCC (mBCC).

Nestin Mediates Hedgehog Pathway Tumorigenesis [PDF]
Cancer Research, 2016 Abstract The intermediate filament protein Nestin serves as a biomarker for stem cells and has been used to identify subsets of cancer stem–like cells. However, the mechanistic contributions of Nestin to cancer pathogenesis are not understood.

Hedgehog Signaling Pathway in Ovarian Cancer [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2013 Despite advances in surgical and chemotherapeutic treatment options, less than 50% of patients with advanced-stage ovarian cancer survive five years after initial diagnosis. In this regard, novel treatment approaches are warranted utilizing molecularly targeted therapies directed against particular components of specific signaling pathways which are ...

Activation of the hedgehog pathway in advanced prostate cancer
Molecular Cancer, 2004 Background The hedgehog pathway plays a critical role in the development of prostate. However, the role of the hedgehog pathway in prostate cancer is not clear. Prostate cancer is the second most prevalent cause of cancer death in American men. Therefore,

Capsaicin triggers autophagic cell survival which drives epithelial mesenchymal transition and chemoresistance in bladder cancer cells in an Hedgehog-dependent manner [PDF]
, 2016 Bladder cancer (BC) is a common urologic tumor characterized by high risk of recurrence and mortality. Capsaicin (CPS), used as an intravesical drug for overactive bladder, was demonstrated to induce cell death in different cancer cells including BC ...

Molecular Pathways: The Hedgehog Signaling Pathway in Cancer [PDF]
Clinical Cancer Research, 2012 AbstractThe Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway regulates embryonic development and may be aberrantly activated in a wide variety of human cancers. Efforts to target pathogenic Hh signaling have steadily progressed from the laboratory to the clinic, and the recent approval of the Hh pathway inhibitor vismodegib for patients with advanced basal cell ...
