The role of Sulf1 during Sonic hedgehog mediated neural patterning [PDF]
Heparan sulphate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are large molecules distributed ubiquitously, both at the cell surface and within the extracellular matrix. These molecules are known to play essential roles in developmental cell signalling, and the differential ...

The Role of the Hedgehog Pathway in Cholangiocarcinoma [PDF]
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a poorly treatable type of cancer and, along with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is the predominant type of primitive liver cancer in adults. The lack of understanding of CCA biology has slowed down the identification of novel targets and the development of effective treatments.

Analysis of Sonic Hedgehog signalling pathway gene expression in Basal Cell Carcinoma and in GLII induced systems [PDF]
PhDEmbryonic development is regulated by a number of signalling pathways, Which are critical for normal growth. Many of these genes then continue to play an important role in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation in adult.

Smoothened regulation in the Hedgehog signaling pathway [PDF]
Hedgehog signaling is a pathway essential in embryonic development, adult stem cell maintenance, and is implicated in the formation and progression of cancer. Signaling in this pathway is triggered when the secreted protein Hedgehog binds to its membrane

Targeting the Hedgehog Pathway in Rhabdomyosarcoma
Aberrant activation of the Hedgehog (Hh) signalling pathway is known to play an oncogenic role in a wide range of cancers; in the particular case of rhabdomyosarcoma, this pathway has been demonstrated to be an important player for both oncogenesis and cancer progression.

Crosstalk of Hedgehog and mTORC1 Pathways [PDF]
Hedgehog (Hh) signaling and mTOR signaling, essential for embryonic development and cellular metabolism, are both coordinated by the primary cilium. Observations from cancer cells strongly indicate crosstalk between Hh and mTOR signaling. This hypothesis is supported by several studies: Evidence points to a TGFβ-mediated crosstalk; Increased PI3K/AKT ...

The Hedgehog Signaling Pathway in Cancer [PDF]
AbstractThe Hedgehog (Hh) pathway is a signaling cascade that directs patterning in most animals and is crucial for proper development. At the molecular level, Hh ligands drive cell proliferation in some cell types while causing others to undergo differentiation. Hh signaling is most active during embryogenesis, and aberrant reactivation of the pathway

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).

Hedgehog Signaling and Embryonic Craniofacial Disorders
Since its initial discovery in a Drosophila mutagenesis screen, the Hedgehog pathway has been revealed to be instrumental in the proper development of the vertebrate face. Vertebrates possess three hedgehog paralogs: Sonic hedgehog (Shh), Indian hedgehog

The presynaptic glycine transporter GlyT2 is regulated by the Hedgehog pathway in vitro and in vivo
By modulating the activation state of the Hedgehog pathway, de la Rocha-Muñoz et al demonstrate that Hedgehog signaling controls the expression and transport activity of the neuronal glycine transporter GlyT2.
