"However, the observation that USP8 and USP48 rather positively regulate HH signaling, whereas GNAS, MEN1, PRKAR1A, DICER1 and VHL rather negatively regulate this signaling pathway in PitNETs, does not allow a definitive conclusion, whether it is active or inactive HH signaling that is involved in formation of these tumors."

"Although the loss-of-function of USP8 can block Hh induced cell surface accumulation of Smo, we found that USP8 only stabilizes Smo but does not regulate Smo phosphorylation in the absence of Hh (XREF_FIG), suggesting that the regulation of Smo by USP8 is downstream of Smo phosphorylation."
