Hedgehog signaling pathway as a potential target in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer
The sonic hedgehog signaling pathway is critical for cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and organ development during embryogenesis. Aberrant activation of the sonic hedgehog pathway has been associated with a variety of human cancers.

Abstract Hepatocellular adenomas (HCAs) are benign liver tumors associated with bleeding or malignant transformation. Data on the indication for surgery are scarce. We analyzed indications and outcome of patients operated for HCAs < 50 mm compared to HCAs ≥ 50 mm. Changes in final postoperative diagnosis were assessed.

Hedgehog-Interacting Protein is a multimodal antagonist of Hedgehog signalling
Hedgehog-Interacting Protein (HHIP) is the only reported secreted inhibitor of Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) signalling. Here, the authors report structures of the HHIP N- and C-terminal domains, both in complexes with glycosaminoglycans, providing insights into ...

Shortened primary cilium length and dysregulated Sonic hedgehog signaling in Niemann-Pick C1 disease [PDF]
The Niemann-Pick type C1 (NPC1) disease is a neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder due to mutations in the NPC1 gene, encoding a transmembrane protein related to the Sonic hedgehog receptor, Patched, and involved in intracellular trafficking of ...

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 ...

The Binding Mode of the Sonic Hedgehog Inhibitor Robotnikinin, a Combined Docking and QM/MM MD Study
Erroneous activation of the Hedgehog pathway has been linked to a great amount of cancerous diseases and therefore a large number of studies aiming at its inhibition have been carried out. One leverage point for novel therapeutic strategies targeting the

The Hedgehog (Hh) signal transduction pathway has been discovered as a central regulator of embryonic development, tissue maintenance and repair [1]. Moreover, several recent evidences have highlighted its key function in tumorigenesis [2]. In some familial cancers, such as basal cell carcinoma and medulloblastoma, Hh pathway activation represents the ...
