Sonic hedgehog promotes G(1) cyclin expression and sustained cell cycle progression in mammalian neuronal precursors.
Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signal transduction via the G-protein-coupled receptor, Smoothened, is required for proliferation of cerebellar granule neuron precursors (CGNPs) during development. Activating mutations in the Hedgehog pathway are also implicated in basal cell carcinoma and medulloblastoma, a tumor of the cerebellum in humans. However, Shh signaling interactions with cell cycle regulatory ...
متن کاملSonic hedgehog promotes cell cycle progression in activated peripheral CD4(+) T lymphocytes.
Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling is important in the growth and differentiation of many cell types and recently has been reported to play a role in T cell development in the thymus. This prompted us to investigate whether or not Shh contributes to the clonal expansion of peripheral CD4(+) T cells. In this study, we demonstrate that Shh and other components of the signaling pathway patched, smooth...
متن کاملSonic Hedgehog Signaling Promotes Tumor Growth
Introduction: Several reports have highlighted the role of Hh pathway activation in prostatecancer growth, but the relative contributions of autocrine and paracrine signaling remain unclear.Divergent reports of the presence or absence of autocrine signaling in established human prostatecancer cell lines has not clarified the matter.Materials and Methods: We comprehensively c...
متن کاملSonic Hedgehog Opposes Epithelial Cell Cycle Arrest
Stratified epithelium displays an equilibrium between proliferation and cell cycle arrest, a balance that is disrupted in basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Sonic hedgehog (Shh) pathway activation appears sufficient to induce BCC, however, the way it does so is unknown. Shh-induced epidermal hyperplasia is accompanied by continued cell proliferation in normally growth arrested suprabasal cells in vivo...
متن کاملSonic hedgehog signaling in basal cell carcinomas.
The development of basal cell carcinoma, the commonest human cancer in fair skinned populations, is clearly associated with constitutive activation of sonic hedgehog signaling. Insight into the genesis of BCC came from the identification of germline mutations of the tumor suppressor gene, PATCHED, a key regulatory component of hedgehog signaling in the nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome. Anal...
