Abstract: AIM: To investigate the expression of Shh and Gli1 gene of Hedgehog-Gli signaling pathway on multiple myeloma and its significance.METHODS: Detecting the Shh and Gli1 mRNA expression in 30 multiple myeloma patients and 20 non hematologic-malignancies patients by RT-PCR, and investigating relationships between Shh or Gli1 gene and clinical targets.RESULTS: Compared with the control group,the Shh and Gli1 mRNA expression in multiple myeloma patients were decreased significantly(P<0.01),which were higher in phase Ⅲ than in phaseⅠor Ⅱ (P<0.05) when staging by D-S and ISS.There is no obvious difference between group A and group B.There is positive correlation between Shh and LDH or β2MG,but negative correlation between Shh and albumin or Hb.There is positive correlation between Gil1 and LDH, calcium ion,CRP or β2MG, but negative correlation between Gil1 and albumin or Hb. As well,There is positive correlation between Shh and Gil1.CONCLUSION: Shh and Gil1 play a role in the development of multiple myeloma, which were maybe new locus in targeted therapy.

Key words: Hedgehog-Gli signaling pathway, multiple myeloma, Shh, Gli1
