Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor in children, and the sonic hedgehog (SHH) subtype accounts for ...

Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) signaling functions in temporal- and context-dependent manners to pattern diverse tissues during embryogenesis. The signal transducer Smoothened (SMO) is induced by sterols, ...

Scientists at the IRCM and the University of Montreal discovered a mechanism that promotes the progression of medulloblastoma, the most common brain tumour found in children. The team, led by Frederic ...
