Research progress on the Sonic Hedgehog signaling pathway in the central nervous system: Novel insights [PDF]
Over the past few decades, the Sonic Hedgehog protein has become a pivotal player in many biological processes, including tumourigenesis, embryonic development, and protective mechanisms after cerebral damage.

Loss of Sonic hedgehog leads to alterations in intestinal secretory cell maturation and autophagy. [PDF]
Intestinal epithelial cells express the Sonic and Indian hedgehog ligands. Despite the strong interest in gut hedgehog signaling in GI diseases, no studies have specifically addressed the singular role of intestinal epithelial cell Sonic hedgehog ...

Sonic Hedgehog activation is implicated in diosgenin-induced megakaryocytic differentiation of human erythroleukemia cells. [PDF]
Differentiation therapy is a means to treat cancer and is induced by different agents with low toxicity and more specificity than traditional ones. Diosgenin, a plant steroid, is able to induce megakaryocytic differentiation or apoptosis in human HEL ...

A Notch above Sonic Hedgehog [PDF]
Cell fate specification requires tightly orchestrated cellular responses to extracellular factors. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Kong et al. (2015) reveal that Notch signaling activity facilitates the interpretation of Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signals by regulating signaling in the cilia, influencing fate specification of neural stem and progenitor ...

Sonic hedgehog: making the gradient
The amino-terminal peptide of Sonic hedgehog is a cell-tethered molecule, which nevertheless seems to provide a developmental signal that acts at a distance and has different effects depending on its concentration. Recent structural data suggest that zinc-dependent proteolysis may somehow be involved in Sonic hedgehog's function.

A highlight on Sonic hedgehog pathway
Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway plays an essential role during vertebrate embryonic development and tumorigenesis. It is already known that Sonic hedgehog (Shh) pathway is important for the evolution of radio and chemo-resistance of several types of ...

Fibrotic scar formation after cerebral ischemic stroke: Targeting the Sonic hedgehog signaling pathway for scar reduction [PDF]
Recent studies have shown that fibrotic scar formation following cerebral ischemic injury has varying effects depending on the microenvironment. However, little is known about how fibrosis is induced and regulated after cerebral ischemic injury.
