Hedgehog Signal and Genetic Disorders

Frontiers in Genetics, 2019
The hedgehog (Hh) family comprises sonic hedgehog (Shh), Indian hedgehog (Ihh), and desert hedgehog (Dhh), which are versatile signaling molecules involved in a wide spectrum of biological events including cell differentiation, proliferation, and ...

The hedgehog pathway inhibitor GDC-0449 shows potential in skin and other cancers

, 2010
Background: The hedgehog signaling pathway is vital in early development, but then becomes dormant, except in some cancer tumours. Hedgehog inhibitors are being developed for potential use in cancer. Objectives/Methods: The objective of this evaluation

Expert Perspectives: Defining and Managing Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Systemic sclerosis–associated interstitial lung disease (SSc‐ILD) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in SSc, affecting up to three‐quarters of patients. The disease course is highly heterogeneous, ranging from indolent, nonprogressive forms to rapidly progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF).

The acetylation GLI1 affects arsenical-induced renal fibrosis by mediating the Hedgehog signalling pathway

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Arsenic exposure by drinking water is a key challenge in the field of public health worldwide. Research has found a connection between arsenic exposure and renal fibrosis, yet the mechanisms behind this are still unclear. In this study, rats were exposed

NOVEL APPROACH TO THE HEDGEHOG SIGNALING PATHWAY: COMBINED TREATMENT OF SMO AND PTCH INHIBITORS

, 2023
Purpose: Abnormal Sonic Hedgehog signaling Pathway (Shh) activation is crucial for the development of cancer stem cells, neoplastic growth, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition processes in adulthood.

Modern competency‐based teaching of human sexual development

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Embryology is an integral part of anatomy and a key subject in basic medical education. The development of the sexual tract, which is closely associated with the formation of the urinary tract and the organs of continence, is particularly complex and relevant for many medical disciplines.

From anthelmintic to neuro‐oncology: A systematic review of mebendazole repurposing for brain tumour therapy

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Mebendazole (MBZ), a benzimidazole anthelmintic with established clinical use, has emerged as a repurposing candidate for primary brain tumours due to its multimodal anticancer actions and central nervous system penetrance. This systematic review synthesizes preclinical and clinical evidence evaluating MBZ's efficacy, mechanisms of action ...

Analysis of Sonic Hedgehog signalling pathway gene expression in Basal Cell Carcinoma and in GLII induced systems

, 2007
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.

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

Cells
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 ...
