Example sentences for: hh-signaling

How can you use “hh-signaling” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • These data show that the Hh-signaling inhibitors, but not structurally related inactive compounds, can significantly compete with the binding of the Hh agonist to Smo membranes.

  • These results argue that the agonist activates the pathway downstream of the Hh-Ptc interaction while cyclopamine, Cur61414 and the agonist may act at a similar level in the Hh-signaling cascade.

  • Through a 'chemical genetic' approach of identifying and studying the mechanism of action of small-molecule agonists (and antagonists), we hoped to uncover some of the complexities of the Hh-signaling system.

  • Furthermore, this supports the data showing that the agonist can activate signaling in Shh -/-embryos (Figure 3) and suggests that the agonist function is not only downstream of the Hh protein but also independent of the endogenous Hh-signaling modulators, Tout veloux and HIP, that act via the Hh ligand [ 2 ] . The competition experiment with forskolin showed identical inhibition curves for Hh protein and the agonist, strongly suggesting that the action of the small molecule is upstream of the protein-kinase-A-sensitive step in the pathway.

  • The Hh-signaling pathway comprises three main components: the Hh ligand; a transmembrane receptor circuit composed of the negative regulator Patched (Ptc) plus an activator, Smoothened (Smo); and finally a cytoplasmic complex that regulates the Cubitus interruptus (Ci) or Gli family of transcriptional effectors.
