    Product Description

    HhAntag is an inhibitor of the Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) pathway (EC50 = 0.4 μM for Shh signaling in a reporter assay).1 It inhibits proliferation of GNP cells when used at concentrations ranging from 0.1 nM to 25 μM. In vivo, HhAntag (20 or 100 mg/kg) suppresses Gli1 mRNA levels, a target of Shh signaling, and increases tumor cell death in a mouse model of Ptc1+/-p53-/- medulloblastoma. HhAntag also blocks basal and bone morphogenic protein 2-induced chondrogenesis in micromass cultures of mouse limb mesenchymal cells.2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
