scRNA-seq in medulloblastoma shows cellular heterogeneity and lineage expansion support resistance to SHH inhibitor therapy

Although the hedgehog (HH) pathway is known to be deregulated in medulloblastoma, inhibitors of the pathway have shown disappointing clinical benefit. Using single-cell sequencing in a mouse model of the disease, the authors show that the response to the HH pathway inhibitor vismodegib is cell-type...
