| The GLI gene family consists of three members: GLI1, GLI2, and GLI3. These genes encode transcription factors that play crucial roles in the Hedgehog signaling pathway, which is important for various developmental processes and cellular functions. : In many cancers, aberrant activation of the Hedgehog signaling pathway leads to increased GLI expression. This can occur through mutations in Hedgehog pathway components or through the overexpression of Hedgehog ligands. -GLI factors are implicated in maintaining cancer stem cell populations. These cells often drive tumor recurrence, metastasis, and resistance to therapy because they have self-renewal capabilities. The overactivation of GLI may, therefore, help sustain these subpopulations within tumors. Elevated GLI expression levels can serve as a prognostic marker in certain cancers, indicating a more aggressive disease and poorer outcomes. |
| Pancreatic Cancer: Hypoxia (low oxygen tension) is commonly found in solid tumors. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1),is a key mediator of the cellular response to hypoxia and is overexpressed in a wide variety of solid tumors, including pancreatic cancer. Nanog is highly expressed in CSCs compared to normal cells [93–97] HIF-1↑ |
