Zusammenfassung

Sonic hedghog (Shh) singaling plays a critical role in organ development and its deregulation is associated with several tumors. Mutations or deletions of the Shh receptor Patched result in a constitutive activation of downstream signaling molecules, namely smoothened and the transcription factor Gli1. Mice with genetic alterations in the Shh pathway develop medulloblastoma and rhabdomyosracoma (RMS), indicating an important role of this pathway for the pathogenesis of RMS. We report here that expression of the protooncogen Gli1 correlates with the alveolar subtype of human rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) cell lines. Gli…
