Establishment and characterization of immortalized Gli-null mouse embryonic fibroblast cell linesRobert J Lipinski
Department of Surgery, School of Medicine and Public Health, University of Wisconsin Madison, Madison, WI, USA

Hypoxia induces a hedgehog response mediated by HIF-1alphaMaarten F Bijlsma
Center for Experimental and Molecular Medicine, Academic Medical Center, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
J Cell Mol Med 13:2053-60. 2009..In conclusion, we have established that hypoxia is translated into a hedgehog response through HIF-1alpha and this mechanism is likely to be responsible for the hedgehog response observed in various ischaemia models...
Leukotriene synthesis is required for hedgehog-dependent neurite projection in neuralized embryoid bodies but not for motor neuron differentiationMaarten F Bijlsma
Center for Experimental and Molecular Medicine, Academic Medical Center, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Stem Cells 26:1138-45. 2008..These data establish a function for the previously described arachidonic acid-dependent Hh pathway in a developmentally relevant model system...
Repression of smoothened by patched-dependent (pro-)vitamin D3 secretionMaarten F Bijlsma
Center for Experimental and Molecular Medicine, Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam, Meibergdreef, Amsterdam, Netherlands
PLoS Biol 4:e232. 2006....
Endogenous hedgehog expression contributes to myocardial ischemia-reperfusion-induced injuryMaarten F Bijlsma
Center for Experimental and Molecular Medicine, Academic Medical Center, Meibergdreef 9, 1105AZ, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Exp Biol Med (Maywood) 233:989-96. 2008..Thus, Hh seems to exert a dualistic action in cardiac ischemia in which high exogenous levels are able to foster tissue repair and endogenous Hh seems to be deleterious...
The Urokinase Receptor (uPAR) Facilitates Clearance of Borrelia burgdorferiJoppe W R Hovius
Center for Experimental and Molecular Medicine CEMM, Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam, AMC, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
PLoS Pathog 5:e1000447. 2009..In conclusion, in B. burgdorferi infection, uPAR is required for phagocytosis and adequate eradication of the spirochete from the heart by a mechanism that is independent of binding of uPAR to uPA or its role in the fibrinolytic system...
Coagulation factor Xa drives tumor cells into apoptosis through BH3-only protein Bim up-regulationKeren S Borensztajn
Center for Experimental and Molecular Medicine, Academic Medical Center, Meibergdreef 9, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Exp Cell Res 313:2622-33. 2007..We thus provide evidence that beyond its role in blood coagulation, FXa plays a key role in cellular processes in which Bim is the central player in determining cell survival...
Protease-activated receptor-4 inhibition protects from multiorgan failure in a murine model of systemic inflammationSjoukje H Slofstra
Center for Experimental and Molecular Medicine, Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam, Meibregdreef 9, 1105 AZ Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Blood 110:3176-82. 2007..These results uncover an important role for PAR-4 in the Shwartzman reaction and suggest that inhibition of PAR-4 signaling in neutrophils could be protective in systemic inflammation and DIC...
Assessing the efficacy of the hedgehog pathway inhibitor vitamin D3 in a murine xenograft model for pancreatic cancerLois W Brüggemann
Center for Experimental and Molecular Medicine, Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Cancer Biol Ther 10:79-88. 2010..However, in in vivo models vitamin D3 was not found to be effective against tumor cell growth...

PLoS Pathog 5:e1000447. 2009..In conclusion, in B. burgdorferi infection, uPAR is required for phagocytosis and adequate eradication of the spirochete from the heart by a mechanism that is independent of binding of uPAR to uPA or its role in the fibrinolytic system...
Hedgehog: an unusual signal transducerMaarten F Bijlsma
Laboratory for Experimental Internal Medicine, Academic Medical Center, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Bioessays 26:387-94. 2004..These atypical features make Hedgehog physiology unique in biology and may explain why this field has attracted such significant attention...
Hedgehog morphogen in cardiovascular diseaseMaarten F Bijlsma
Center for Experimental and Molecular Medicine, Academic Medical Center, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Circulation 114:1985-91. 2006..In light of the recent discovery of Hh transport by insect lipophorin, we also hypothesize a role for low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in mammalian Hh transport, creating a surprising role for LDL in cardiovascular disease...
Hedgehog turns lipoproteins into Janus-faced particlesMaarten F Bijlsma
Academic Medical Center, Laboratory of Experimental Internal Medicine, Meibergdreef 9, 1105 AZ Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Trends Cardiovasc Med 16:217-20. 2006..No longer would LDL merely be bad news for the progression of atherosclerotic plaques, as it also conveys a revascularization and tissue salvage signal in the form of hedgehog...
Stimulation of the vagus nerve attenuates macrophage activation by activating the Jak2-STAT3 signaling pathwayWouter J de Jonge
Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Academic Medical Center, Amsterdam, The Netherlands
