Serpine2/PN-1 Is Required for Proliferative Expansion of Pre-Neoplastic Lesions and Malignant Progression to Medulloblastoma. [PDF]
Medulloblastomas are malignant childhood brain tumors that arise due to the aberrant activity of developmental pathways during postnatal cerebellar development and in adult humans.

Investigating Tom1 as a Candidate Regulator of Ptch1 [PDF]
Sonic hedgehog (Shh) is a signaling molecule that is involved in patterning the embryo and regulates adult stem cell homeostasis. Patched1 (Ptch1) is the receptor for Shh and upon binding to Shh is endocytosed, allowing downstream signaling to occur ...

Simultaneous Detection of Both Single Nucleotide Variations and Copy Number Alterations by Next-Generation Sequencing in Gorlin Syndrome. [PDF]
Gorlin syndrome (GS) is an autosomal dominant disorder that predisposes affected individuals to developmental defects and tumorigenesis, and caused mainly by heterozygous germline PTCH1 mutations.

A model for PTCH1/Ptch1-associated tumors comprising mutational inactivation and gene silencing
Mutations of the Sonic hedgehog (SHH) receptor, Patched I (PITCH I), have been identified in a variety of tumors. PTCH1 is usually considered to be a tumor suppressor gene. However, one normal allele is retained in many tumors.

Repression of smoothened by patched-dependent (pro-)vitamin D3 secretion.
The developmentally important hedgehog (Hh) pathway is activated by binding of Hh to patched (Ptch1), releasing smoothened (Smo) and the downstream transcription factor glioma associated (Gli) from inhibition.

About 30% of medulloblastomas (MBs), a tumor of the cerebellum, arise from cerebellar granule cell precursors (GCPs) undergoing transformation following activation of the Sonic hedgehog (Shh) pathway. To study this process, we generated a new MB model by
