Overactivation of SHH signaling induces a cascade of dedifferentiation and oncogenesis in a new mouse model for choroid plexus carcinoma
It is demonstrated that aberrant Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) signaling during embryonic Choroid Plexus (CP) development triggers a dedifferentiation cascade that reverts mature epithelium to a progenitor-like state and identifies that these tumor cells cultivated in vitro are vulnerable to ATR and CDK inhibition.
