Hedgehog pathway signaling inhibitor ENV-101 blocks signals that can lead to lung fibrosis and scarring and may lead to remodeling of early fibrosis.
had significant improvements in lung function and reversal of lung fibrosis measures after 12 weeks of therapy with an investigational inhibitor of the Hedgehog signaling pathway.
"Historically we've not been seeing improvements in FVC, which is what we've been seeing , and I think it's conceivable that you can get remodeling of early areas of fibrosis in the lung," Maher said in an interview. Although as the word idiopathic in IPF indicates, the etiology of the disease is unknown; investigators have found that in IPF, repetitive epithelial injury to lung tissue leads to activation of the Hedgehog pathway. Hedgehog signaling, in turn, induces formation and activation of myofibroblasts that lay down fibrotic matrix and contract lung tissue, leading to significant impairments in gas exchange, Maher said.-finger protein GLI1 from the kinase complex into the cell cytoplasm.
