Abstract:
Mutations in the human homologue of Drosophila Patched1 (PTCH1) have been found in several common tumours including basal cell carcinoma, medulloblastoma, and rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS). Medulloblastoma and RMS are also present in the murine model for Ptch1 deficiency. Tumours in heterozygous Ptch1(neo67/+) mice consistently exhibit elevated transcript levels of the proto-oncogene Gli1, of Ptch1 itself, and of the insulin-like growth factor 2 (Igf2). The present study has investigated additional mol...     »
