Biochem/physiol Actions

Shh protein is secreted by Purkinje cells in the cerebellum with both autocrine and paracrine functions. The Shh signaling is mediated by the interaction of Shh with transmembrane proteins, Patched and Smoothened. The Shh pathway cross-talks Notch and Wnt pathways and acts via downstream targets such as cyclins, gamma catenin, myc and other transcription factors. The Hh family members have multiple roles as morphogens, cell survival factors, setting anterior-posterior axis and digit formation during development of limb and axon guidance factors during the development of brain and nervous system.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in phosphate buffered saline containing carbohydrates.

In humans, the sacrum forms an important component of the pelvic arch, and it transfers the weight of the body to the lower limbs. The sacrum is formed by collapse of the intervertebral discs (IVDs) between the five sacral vertebrae

Intervertebral discs (IVD) are essential components of the vertebral column. They maintain separation, and provide shock absorbing buffers, between adjacent vertebrae, while also allowing movements between them. Each IVD consists of a central semi-liquid nucleus pulposus (NP) surrounded by a

Hedgehog (Hh) signaling modulates tissue remodeling by controlling the fate of Hh-responsive cells. Healthy adult livers exhibit little Hh activity. However, cells involved in adult liver repair, including myofibroblasts and progenitors, are capable of producing and responding to Hh ligands.

The sonic hedgehog (SHH) and STAT3 signaling pathways play important roles during carcinogenesis with possible interaction. To determine the association of the activation of SHH signaling pathway and STAT3 pathway in carcinogenesis of human papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), we examined

The Hedgehog (Hh) family of secreted proteins is necessary for aspects of the development and maintenance of the gastrointestinal tract. Hh is thought to function as a morphogen, a mitogen, a cell survival factor, and an axon guidance factor. Given
