Sonic Hedgehog Signaling and Tooth Development [PDF]
Sonic hedgehog (Shh) is a secreted protein with important roles in mammalian embryogenesis. During tooth development, Shh is primarily expressed in the dental epithelium, from initiation to the root formation stages. A number of studies have analyzed the function of Shh signaling at different stages of tooth development and have revealed that Shh ...

Sonic Hedgehog Signaling in Limb Development [PDF]
The gene encoding the secreted protein Sonic hedgehog (Shh) is expressed in the polarizing region (or zone of polarizing activity), a small group of mesenchyme cells at the posterior margin of the vertebrate limb bud. Detailed analyses have revealed that Shh has the properties of the long sought after polarizing region morphogen that specifies ...

Sonic hedgehog signaling in craniofacial development
Differentiation, 2023Mutations in SHH and several other genes encoding components of the Hedgehog signaling pathway have been associated with holoprosencephaly syndromes, with craniofacial anomalies ranging in severity from cyclopia to facial cleft to midfacial and mandibular hypoplasia.

Sonic Hedgehog on Microparticles and Neovascularization
2012Neovascularization represents a pivotal process consisting in the development of vascular network during embryogenesis and adult life. Postnatally, it arises mainly through angiogenesis, which has physiological and pathological roles in health and disease.

Life, death and Sonic hedgehog
BioEssays, 2000The secreted glycoprotein Sonic hedgehog (SHH), a vertebrate homologue of the Drosophila segment polarity gene Hedgehog, is essential for the development of diverse tissues during embryogenesis. Studies of SHH function during neural tube and somite development have focused on its role in specifying the dorsoventral polarity of these structures, but a ...

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2005
The sinusoid anatomy of the penis is complex and requires complicated interaction between smooth muscle and endothelium in order to maintain homeostasis in the adult. The morphogen, Sonic hedgehog (Shh), is a crucial regulator of these processes, along with its down stream targets patched (Ptc), Hox, bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP's), vascular ...

Clinical calcium, 2005
We investigated ectopic cartilage and bone formation induced by transplantation of cells which were transfected with Sonic hedgehog (Shh) cDNA encoding amino-terminal peptide for gene therapy in bone regeneration. These results indicated Shh regulated early chondrogenesis and stimulation of prechondrocytes, and consequently the synergistic effects of ...

The Hedgehog (Hh) Pathway, originally identified in Drosophila, [1–4] is a highly conserved signaling pathway which orchestrates multiple, disparate aspects of embryogenesis, development and tissue remodeling in a wide spectrum of systems [5–8]. This is usually accomplished by autocrine/paracrine signaling and aims to control the size and localization ...

Sonic Hedgehog Signaling and the Developing Tooth
2004Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling and the developing tooth. The signaling peptide encoded by the Shh gene has a diverse and wide range of function during normal vertebrate development, and this pathway is active in the developing tooth.

Sonic hedgehog relates to colorectal carcinogenesis
Journal of Gastroenterology, 2009The activation of Hedgehog signaling, which is critical to normal mammalian gastrointestinal development, is implicated in the development of various tumors, including colorectal cancer. In the pancreas, a precursor lesion overexpresses the Sonic hedgehog (Shh) when compared with normal tissue and cancer.
