The present invention makes available methods and reagents for inhibiting aberrant growth states resulting from hedgehog gain-of-function, ptc loss-of-function or smoothened gain-of-function comprising contacting the cell with a hedgehog antagonist, such as a small molecule, in a sufficient amount to aberrant growth state, e.g., to agonize a normal ptc pathway or antagonize smoothened or hedgehog activity.

Los métodos disponibles y los reactivo de las actuales marcas de la invención para inhibir estados aberrantes del crecimiento resultando de la ganar-de-funcio'n del hedgehog, de la pe'rdida-de-funcio'n del ptc o de la ganar-de-funcio'n alisada abarcando entrando en contacto con la célula con un antagonista del hedgehog, tal como una molécula pequeña, en una suficiente cantidad al estado aberrante del crecimiento, e.g., para agonize un camino normal del ptc o para ponerlo en contra actividad alisado o del hedgehog.
