Somatic cell reprogramming for Parkinson's disease treatment

open access: yesIbrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 59-73, Spring 2025.
The fundamental purpose of cell reprogramming to treat Parkinson's disease is to generate dopaminergic neurons (DAN) and do transplantation. There are two ways to accomplish this. One method is to induce cells into induced DA neurons (iDAN) directly or to induce cells into induced pluripotent stem cells and ultimately into iDAN in vitro. Another option

Targeting the hedgehog pathway: the development of cyclopamine and the development of anti-cancer drugs targeting the hedgehog pathway

open access: yes, 2011
The Hedgehog signalling pathway plays a critical role in controlling growth, especially during development, but is often over-activated in tumourigenesis.

Dihydroartemisinin induces apoptosis and inhibits proliferation, migration, and invasion in epithelial ovarian cancer via inhibition of the hedgehog signaling pathway

open access: yesCancer Medicine, 2018
Dihydroartemisinin (DHA), the primary of artemisinin extracted from the traditional Chinese medicine Artemisia annua, has been used in malaria treatment for a long time. Recently, many studies have indicated that, in addition to antimalarial effects, DHA

Unveiling the roles of extracellular vesicles in hematologic malignancies: Pathogenesis, diagnostic tools, and clinical translation

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles play pivotal roles in both healthy hematopoiesis and hematologic malignancies. They not only regulate hematopoietic stem cell fitness but also drive cancer progression and drug resistance. Their clinical potential spans from serving as non‐invasive biomarkers to acting as innovative therapeutic platforms and drug delivery ...

Selective EV Protein Sorting and Pathway Perturbation in AML Upon Synergistic FLT3 and Hedgehog Pathway Inhibition

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles
Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a haematologic malignancy with high relapse incidence and mortality. Approximately one‐third of AML patients carry an fms‐like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) mutation, often associated with GLI expression and Hedgehog ...

Aliphatic Poly(Carbonate)s with Acid Responsive Release Mechanisms for Micellar Anti‐Tumor Drug Delivery

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Micellar systems based on biodegradable aliphatic polycarbonates and acid‐responsive triggers enhance drug solubility, stability, and tumor‐selective release. This review covers micelles with acid‐cleavable drug linkages and those that disassemble via acid‐sensitive functionalities.

Assessing the efficacy of the hedgehog pathway inhibitor vitamin D3 in a murine xenograft model for pancreatic cancer

open access: yes, 2010
The developmental Hedgehog (Hh) pathway has been shown to cause malignancies in the adult organism, specifically in the proximal gastrointestinal tract. Previous studies have used the Hh-inhibitory alkaloid cyclopamine to treat Hh-dependent tumor growth.

Advances in GPCRs Associated With Wnt Signaling Within the Auditory System

open access: yesMedicine Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) that interact with the Wnt signaling pathway are pivotal for auditory system homeostasis, as they orchestrate inner ear development, hair cell (HC) regeneration, and hearing preservation. Frizzled (FZD) receptors, the core Wnt‐related GPCRs, bind Wnt ligands and co‐receptors (e.g., LRP5/6) to activate both ...

The role of primary cilia and sonic hedgehog signalling in adrenal development function.

open access: yes, 2012
PhDPrimary cilia are sensory organelles found on most vertebrate cells during interphase. They play key roles in development, cell signalling and cancer, and are involved in signal transduction pathways such as Hh and Wnt signalling.
