GLI1 and liver disorder: Several lines of evidence confirm that abnormality of the SHH pathway plays an important role in the liver diseases.

Kim et al. have found that hepatic stellate cells could stimulate the proliferation and migration of cholangiocarcinoma cells through HH signaling activation [27].
