Sonic hedgehog, Shh; Indian hedgehog, Ihh; Desert hedgehog, Dhh ; Hh signaling pathway is able to regulate the EMT. Hh signaling-related factors, SHH, SMO and GLI1.
Hedgehog signaling is a crucial pathway in embryonic development and tissue homeostasis, but its dysregulation has been implicated in various cancers. The Hedgehog (Hh) pathway is activated by the binding of Hedgehog ligands (such as Sonic Hedgehog, Indian Hedgehog, and Desert Hedgehog) to their receptors, primarily Patched (PTCH) and Smoothened (SMO).

-Hedgehog pathway is crucial for the maintenance of stem cell populations. When deregulated, it can help sustain cancer stem cells (CSCs) that possess self-renewal properties, drive tumor recurrence, and confer resistance to conventional therapies.

-Inhibitors of the pathway, such as vismodegib and sonidegib, have been developed and are used in clinical settings, particularly for treating advanced BCC and other Hedgehog-dependent tumors.

5447- ATV,    The Mevalonate Pathway, a Metabolic Target in Cancer Therapy
- Review, Var, NA
Risk↓, increasing amount of data, from preclinical and epidemiological studies, that support an inverse association between the use of statins, potent inhibitors of MVA biosynthetic pathway, and mortality rate in specific cancers
Dose↑, cancer treatment demands the use of relatively high doses of single statins for a prolonged period, thereby limiting this therapeutic strategy due to adverse effects.
ChemoSen↑, synergistic effects of tolerable doses of statins with conventional chemotherapy might enhance efficacy with lower doses of each drug and, probably, reduce adverse effects and resistance.
chemoP↑,
HMG-CoA↓, potential use of MVA pathway inhibitors to improve therapeutic window in cancer.
EMT↓, statins may suppress epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) program together with the inhibition of cancer stem cell generation, maintenance, and expansion
CSCs↓,
HH↝, inhibitors of MVA pathway (e.g., statins) that modulate Hh pathway activity could represent potential drugs in Hh pathway-related cancers.
YAP/TEAD↝, MVA participates in the regulation of YAP-TAZ expression and transcriptional activity and reveal an original process through which statins have anticancer effects.

4650- CUR,    Curcumin and cancer stem cells: curcumin has asymmetrical effects on cancer and normal stem cells
- Review, Var, NA
SCD1↓, Curcumin has been shown to have numerous cytotoxic effects on cancer stem cells (CSCs).
IL6↓, This is due to its suppression of the release of cytokines, particularly interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8 and IL-1
IL8↓,
IL1↓,
*selectivity↑, curcumin has little toxicity against normal stem cells (NSCs).
Wnt↝, effects at multiple sites along CSC pathways, such as Wnt, Notch, Hedgehog and FAK.
NOTCH↝,
HH↝,
FAK↝,
