Sonic Hedgehog Signaling and Development of the Dentition

Sonic Hedgehog Signaling and Development of the Dentition

Sonic hedgehog (Shh) is an essential signaling peptide required for normal embryonic development. It represents a highly-conserved marker of odontogenesis amongst the toothed vertebrates. Signal transduction is involved in early specification of the tooth-forming epithelium in the oral cavity, and,...
