Widespread GLI expression but limited canonical hedgehog signaling restricted to the ductular reaction in human chronic liver disease.

Canonical Hedgehog (Hh) signaling in vertebrate cells occurs following Smoothened activation/translocation into the primary cilia (Pc), followed by a GLI transcriptional response. Nonetheless, GLI activation can occur independently of the canonical Hh pathway. Using a murine model of liver injury, w...
