Abstract

Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) signaling pathway not only plays key roles in embryonic development,but also functions in postnatal development and maintenance of tissue/organ integrity and function.In recent years,it has been found that the SHH signaling pathway was abnormally activated in some lung diseases,which suggested that the SHH signaling pathway may play a part in the development of some lung diseases.This article reviewed the potential role of SHH signaling pathway on the embryonic lung development and lung diseases. Key words: Sonic Hedgehog signaling pathway; Embryoniclung development; Lung disease
