• Hedgehog signalling as a target in cancer stem cells 

      Medina Villaamil, Vanessa; Blanco, Moisés; Díaz-Prado, Silvia; Espada, Jesús (Spirnger, 2009)
      [Abstract] Hedgehog (Hh) is one of the most important signalling pathways. Together with the Wnt, TGF-β/BMP and Notch pathways, it is involved in both embryonic development and adult tissue homeostasis. This is because Hh ...
    • Notch signalling in cancer stem cells 

      Bolós Fernández, Victoria; Medina Villaamil, Vanessa; Aparicio Gallego, Guadalupe; Díaz-Prado, Silvia; Grande Pulido, Enrique (Springer, 2009)
      [Abstract] A new theory about the development of solid tumours is emerging from the idea that solid tumours, like normal adult tissues, contain stem cells (called cancer stem cells) and arise from them. Genetic mutations ...
    • Wnt signalling and cancer stem cells 

      Espada, Jesús; Calvo, Moisés B.; Díaz-Prado, Silvia; Medina, Vanessa (Springer, 2009-07-15)
      [Abstract] Intracellular signalling mediated by secreted Wnt proteins is essential for the establishment of cell fates and proper tissue patterning during embryo development and for the regulation of tissue homeostasis and ...
