Sonic Hedgehog in SCLC
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 initial tumorigenic event, whereas in other human malignancie...
متن کاملSonic hedgehog
Are there related proteins? Lots. In mammals, Sonic is related to two other hedgehogs: Indian and Desert. When expressed appropriately, the three proteins can substitute for one another but they do have unique functions: Desert hedgehog is needed for spermatogenesis and Indian hedgehog regulates cartilage differentiation. In the zebrafish, Sonic is related to Tiggywinkle hedgehog — which is tho...
متن کاملPerformance of methylation and expression fluctuations of sonic hedgehog genes in gastric adenocarcinoma
Gastric cancer (GC) is considered as one of the most serious cancers, and in Iran, due to environmental factors in different regions, it has a high frequency. Apart from environmental factors, genetic and epigenetic ones also play a key role in the development of carcinogenesis of GC. In this regard, the study of functioning of the molecular mechanisms involved in the carcinogenesis and also tu...
متن کاملSonic Hedgehog Signaling in Thyroid Cancer
Thyroid cancer is the most common malignancy of the endocrine system. The initiation of thyroid cancer is often triggered by a genetic mutation in the phosphortidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) or mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, such as RAS and BRAF, or by the rearrangement of growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase genes such as RET/PTC. The sonic hedgehog (Shh) pathway is evolution...
متن کاملSignal dynamics in Sonic hedgehog tissue patterning.
During development, secreted signaling factors, called morphogens, instruct cells to adopt specific mature phenotypes. However, the mechanisms that morphogen systems employ to establish a precise concentration gradient for patterning tissue architecture are highly complex and are typically analyzed only at long times after secretion (i.e. steady state). We have developed a theoretical model tha...
