Hedgehog signaling regulates bladder cancer growth and tumorigenicity.
The role of Hedgehog (HH) signaling in bladder cancer remains controversial. The gene encoding the HH receptor and negative regulator PATCHED1 (PTCH1) resides on a region of chromosome 9q, one copy of which is frequently lost in bladder cancer. Inconsistent with PTCH1 functioning as a classic tumor suppressor gene, loss-of-function mutations in the remaining copy of PTCH1 are not commonly found...
متن کاملERp19 contributes to tumorigenicity in human gastric cancer by promoting cell growth, migration and invasion
ERp19, a mammalian thioredoxin-like protein, plays a key role in defense against endoplasmic reticulum stress. It belongs to the protein disulfide isomerize (PDI) family, whose members have been implicated in development of breast, ovarian and gastrointestinal cancers. However, the role of ERp19 in gastric cancer (GC) remains undefined. Therefore, we sought to investigate the expression and pro...
متن کاملSonic Hedgehog Pathway Contributes to Gastric Cancer Cell Growth and Proliferation
The Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway is commonly activated in gastrointestinal cancer. However, our understanding of the Shh pathway in gastric cancer remains limited. Here we examined the effects of cyclopamine, a specific inhibitor of the Shh signaling pathway, on cell growth and proliferation in gastric primary cancer cells GAM-016 and the MKN-45 cell line. The results showed that the ...
متن کاملHEDGEHOG-GLI1 Signaling Regulates Human Glioma Growth, Cancer Stem Cell Self-Renewal, and Tumorigenicity
Cancer stem cells are rare tumor cells characterized by their ability to self-renew and to induce tumorigenesis. They are present in gliomas and may be responsible for the lethality of these incurable brain tumors. In the most aggressive and invasive type, glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), an average of about one year spans the period between detection and death [1]. The resistence of gliomas to c...
متن کاملThe Hedgehog transcription factor Gli3 modulates angiogenesis.
RATIONALE The Gli transcription factors are mediators of Hedgehog (Hh) signaling and have been shown to play critical roles during embryogenesis. Previously, we have demonstrated that the Hh pathway is reactivated by ischemia in adult mammals, and that this pathway can be stimulated for therapeutic benefit; however, the specific roles of the Gli transcription factors during ischemia-induced Hh ...
