Gli proteins and Hedgehog signaling: development and cancer

Open access
Ruiz i Altaba, Ariel·1999·Trends in Genetics

Abstract

A surprising number of apparently unrelated human diseases, including familial and sporadic cancers and a number of syndromes and malformations, seem to be associated with abnormal function of the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway. Zinc-finger transcription factors of the Gli family play critical roles in the mediation and interpretation of Hh signals. Elucidating how Gli proteins work will enable us to further our knowledge of how cells proliferate, differentiate or survive in response to Hh signals, as well as to design rational therapies for these Hh-signaling related diseases (HSDs).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
