Morphogenes, abundantly described during embryogenesis have recently emerged as crucial modulators of cell differentiation processes. Hedgehog signaling, the dysregulation of which causing several pathologies such as congenital defects and cancer, is involved in several cell differentiation processes including adipogenesis. This review presents...

Human stem cells are powerful tools by which to investigate molecular mechanisms of cell growth and differentiation under normal and pathological conditions. Hedgehog signaling, the dysregulation of which causes several pathologies, such as congenital defects and cancer, is involved in several cell differentiation processes and interferes with...

Protein-tyrosine-phosphatases (PTP-ases), in concert with protein tyrosine kinases, control various biological activities such as cell growth and differentiation. In rodents, around 40 PTP-ases have been described. Functional orthologue for each of these PTP-ases have been identified in human, except for OST-PTP. OST-PTP is a transmembrane...
