“…15 Ciliopathies such as Joubert syndrome (JS [MIM: 213300]), acrocallosal syndrome (ACLS [MIM: 200990]), and oral-facial-digital syndromes (MIM: 311200, 277170) frequently present with congenital defects of the CNS (e.g., cerebellar vermis hypoplasia, ''molar tooth sign'' [MTS], defects of the corpus callosum, polymicrogyria), midline facial anomalies, and polydactyly, which are at least partially attributed to altered SHH signaling. [16][17][18][19] Similarly, heterozygous pathogenic variants directly affecting several members of the SHH pathway, including SHH itself (MIM: 600725), PTCH1, SMO (MIM: 601500), GLI2 (MIM: 165230), or GLI3 (MIM: 165240), result in a spectrum of autosomal-dominant developmental disorders including holoprosencephaly (MIM: 142945), schizencephaly with polymicrogyria (MIM: 269160), Curry-Jones syndrome (CJS [MIM: 601707]), Greig cephalopolysyndactyly syndrome (GCPS [MIM: 175700]), Pallister-Hall syndrome (MIM: 146510), and non-syndromic polydactylies (MIM: 174200, 174700), that are variably characterized by anomalies of the brain, midline face, and/or limbs. [20][21][22][23] An aberrant activity of the SHH pathway has also been firmly associated with increased risk of developing cancer.…”
