PTCH1

PTCH1 (Patched 1) is the HH receptor; LOF → constitutive SMO → GLI1/2 transcription; germline PTCH1 mutations cause Gorlin syndrome (BCCs, SHH medulloblastoma); somatic PTCH1 LOF in ~90% sporadic BCC; SMO inhibitors (vismodegib, sonidegib) restore PTCH1-like SMO inhibition.

Also known as: PTCH1, Patched 1, PTCH, hedgehog receptor, PTCH1 Gorlin, basal cell nevus syndrome, PTCH1 medulloblastoma, sonic hedgehog pathway
