RETRACTED ARTICLE: mTORC2 regulates hedgehog pathway activity by promoting stability to Gli2 protein and its nuclear translocation

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2017
mTORC2 is aberrantly activated in cancer and therefore is considered to be an important therapeutic target. The hedgehog pathway, which is also often hyperactivated, regulates transcription of several genes associated with angiogenesis, metastasis ...

Subverting Hedgehog Protein Autoprocessing by Chemical Induction of Paracatalysis

open access: yesBiochemistry, 2020
Hedgehog proteins, a family of vital cell signaling factors, are expressed in precursor form, which requires specialized autoprocessing, called cholesterolysis, for full biological activity. Cholesterolysis occurs in cis through the action of the precursor's C-terminal enzymatic domain, HhC.

Computational prediction and experimental verification of new MAP kinase docking sites and substrates including Gli transcription factors.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2010
In order to fully understand protein kinase networks, new methods are needed to identify regulators and substrates of kinases, especially for weakly expressed proteins.

In vitro and in vivo inhibition of breast cancer cell growth by targeting the Hedgehog/GLI pathway with SMO (GDC-0449) or GLI (GANT-61) inhibitors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Aberrant Hedgehog (Hh)/glioma-associated oncogene (GLI) signaling has been implicated in cancer progression. Here, we analyzed GLI1, Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) and NF-κB expression in 51 breast cancer (ductal carcinoma) tissues using immunohistochemistry ...

Sonic hedgehog pathway expression in non-small cell lung cancer

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Medical Oncology, 2012
Objective: Activation of the hedgehog pathway is an important signaling mechanism crucial in embryogenesis and has strong links to carcinogenesis. This study investigates the expression of the Sonic hedgehog pathway molecules in non-small cell lung ...

Branch Mode Selection during Early Lung Development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Many organs of higher organisms, such as the vascular system, lung, kidney, pancreas, liver and glands, are heavily branched structures. The branching process during lung development has been studied in great detail and is remarkably stereotyped.

Lipoprotein[a] is the major apoB-containing lipoprotein in the plasma of a hibernator, the hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus).

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1988
We have undertaken studies aimed at elucidating the interrelationships existing between the seasonal modifications in endocrine status (already demonstrated by Saboureau, M., and J. Boissin. 1978. C.R. Acad. Sci.

The Proteasome and Cul3-Dependent Protein Ubiquitination Is Required for Gli Protein-Mediated Activation of Gene Expression in the Hedgehog Pathway

open access: yesCells
Many cellular processes are regulated by proteasome-mediated protein degradation, including regulation of signaling pathways and gene expression. Among the pathways regulated by the ubiquitin–proteasome system is the Hedgehog pathway and its downstream ...
