Cyclosporine A up?regulates Sonic hedgehog in gingiva: role of the up?regulation on gingival cell proliferation

ConclusionCyclosporine A up?regulates gingival SHH expression in vitro and in vivo, and the inhibition of the SHH pathway counteracts the stimulatory effect of cyclosporine A on gingival fibroblast proliferation. Therefore, we suggest that SHH mediates a novel molecular mechanism for cyclosporine A?induced gingival complications. (Source: Journal of Periodontal Research)
