Abstract

The present invention makes available methods and reagents for inhibiting aberrant growth states resulting from hedgehog gain-of-function by 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 hedgehog activity.
