Purmorphamine activates the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway, directly binding to the Smoothened (Smo) receptor.
Purmorphamine activates the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway, directly binding to the Smoothened (Smo) receptor. In various studies, purmorphamine has been shown to induce osteoblast differentiation, generate cardiomyocytes from human embryonic stem cells, increase the neuronal differentiation of a human striatal neural stem cell line, and to differentiate human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) into motoneurons.
Sonic hedgehog (Shh) is a morphogen essential to the developing nervous system that continues to play an important role in adult life by contributing to cell proliferation and differentiation, maintaining blood-brain barrier integrity, and being cytoprotective against oxidative and excitotoxic
Central nervous system tuberculosis (CNS TB) has a high mortality and morbidity associated with severe inflammation. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) protects the brain from inflammation but the mechanisms causing BBB damage in CNS TB are uncharacterized. We demonstrate that Mycobacterium
With no effective therapies to attenuate cartilage degeneration in osteoarthritis (OA), the result is pain and disability. Activation of hedgehog (HH) signaling causes changes related to the progression of OA, with higher levels of Gli-mediated transcriptional activation associated with increased
