GLI2 and colon carcinoma: In two human colon carcinoma cell lines, HT29 and GC3/c1, inhibiting the HH signaling pathway using GANT61 decreased expression of GLI1, GLI2 and the HH ligand receptor, PTCH1, and inhibited proliferation by inducing cellular accumulation at the G1/S boundary 24 hr after treatment, determined by flow cytometric analysis.
